Hello:

What kind of problem would be caused if pins 2 and 3, marked as NC in the data sheet, were grounded? Would it cause the device to not function?

Thanks...

The sensor will work correctly even if the pins 2 and 3 are connected to GND.

Hi, thanks. It seemed to be acting strangely so that's why I asked. It was actually my strange programming that was the problem.

In any case, ST might want to disambiguate that on the data sheet and say it could be NC or GND. I know Kinesis and Bosch do on theirs. C'mon, ST, get with the crowd!!
