Name    : MMA8452_ahref Library                         
Author  : Noah Shibley, Michael Grant, NoMi Design Ltd. http://n0m1.com, Richard Fox                        
Date    : Feb 10th 2012                                    
Version : 0.1                                              
Notes   : Arduino Library for use with the Freescale MMA8452Q via i2c. 
          Some of the lib source from Kerry D. Wong
	  http://www.kerrywong.com/2012/01/09/interfacing-mma8453q-with-arduino/
	  This library has been tested with the Freescale MMA8452Q Accelerometer
	  chip, however the Freescale MMA8451, and MMA8452 probably also work.
	  Refer to the examples for how to use this library. 
	  Edited xyz method uses process from Nathan Seidle's MMA8452Q code
      https://github.com/sparkfun/MMA8452_Accelerometer 

      Uses MMA8453_n0m1 as a base: https://github.com/n0m1/MMA8453_n0m1
			
Dependencies:	
	 I2C library:
	 http://dsscircuits.com/articles/arduino-i2c-master-library.html
