SparkFun Acceleration Sensors Editorial Review

The SparkFun GPS-RTK Breakout - ZED-F9P board has received mixed reviews from customers. Some users have reported issues with the core chip requiring 1.8V and needing to be level-shifted to interface with 3.3V signals. The level shifters used on the board were found to not shift the voltages correctly, causing interference with other I2C devices and making the device standalone/not compatible with other devices on the same I2C bus. This information was not clearly stated upfront by SparkFun, leading to frustration for some users who had to troubleshoot I2C bus hangs before discovering the issue. Additionally, it was noted that if the board is used with SPI, users may not be able to access the magnetometer, as it can only be accessed through the auxiliary I2C. Users have also pointed out that no cables are included with the board, which was disappointing for some customers. Overall, while some users have managed to get the device working satisfactorily for their needs, the lack of compatibility information and the issues with level shifting and accessing certain components have led to frustration for others. **
