Balancimg MPU6050 by LEDs on PWM

Dependencies:   mbed

It is possible to observe the MPU6050 data on serial. If serial termimal is not started then still LED application runs.

There are 4 LEDs on LPC1768. So the first 3 LEDs are assign to accelerometer X, Y and Z. The last LED can drive by user. Default it lights a bit. If you want to turn it off then change the value as "190" to "180" on this line: myled4 = cos(190*2.0*3.13/360) * 0.5 + 0.5; If you want to turn it on (full) then change the value as "190" to "0" on above code line.
