Tilmann Unte 224b5b744d drivers: sensor: mpu6050: scale settings to DT, adds sample rate setting
Moves the MPU6050 accel/gyro scale settings from KConfig to Devicetree.
Adds a new setting for the MPU6050 sample rate divider register and
transmits it to the sensor upon initialization.
This helps to reduce the interrupt firing rate when combined with the
data ready trigger.
A default division factor is provided which ensures compatibility with
existing applications.
The MPU6050 sample application is extended and used for hardware tests.

.. zephyr:code-sample:: mpu6050
:name: MPU6050 motion tracking device
:relevant-api: sensor_interface
Get temperature, acceleration, and angular velocity from an MPU6050 sensor (polling & trigger
mode).
Description
***********
This sample application periodically (0.5 Hz) measures the sensor
temperature, acceleration, and angular velocity, displaying the values
on the console along with a timestamp since startup.
When triggered mode is enabled the measurements are displayed at a rate
of 32Hz governed by the sensor's internal clock and divider.
Wiring
*******
This sample uses an external breakout for the sensor. A devicetree
overlay must be provided to identify the I2C bus and GPIO used to
control the sensor.
Building and Running
********************
After providing a devicetree overlay that specifies the sensor location,
build this sample app using:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/sensor/mpu6050
:board: nrf52dk/nrf52832
:goals: build flash
