MPU6000 Pin Grouping


Updated the MPU-6000 pins to more general functional groups: Power, Ground, Interface, Control, NC, Reserved. Added/confirmed Section on all 24 pins and verified every Section value exactly matches its Pin Group.
Open items:
  • None.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Review the symbol layout after the grouping update.
  2. Run ERC if you want to validate the updated pin metadata.
Assign a Terminal Order from 1 to 10, starting with Power. Power should be Terminal Order 1, and Ground should be last, Terminal Order 10. For Orientation, set Power to "Top" and Ground to "Bottom." For the remaining sections/groups, you may decide the Terminal Order and Orientation yourself. For Orientation, distribute them between "Left" and "Right" — don't put everything on one side. Each group/section should have a different orientation.
I’ll assign terminal ordering and orientations by group, keeping Power at order 1/top and Ground at order 10/bottom, then verify every pin in each group matches the chosen values.
Assigned Terminal Order and Orientation across all 24 pins: Power = 1/Top, Interface = 3/Left, Control = 5/Right, NC = 7/Left, Reserved = 9/Right, Ground = 10/Bottom. Verified every pin has the expected group-level order and orientation.
Open items:
  • There are 6 groups but only 4 orientation values, so Left/Right are necessarily reused while still distributed.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Review the generated symbol layout.
  2. Adjust any group order if you prefer a different visual flow.
