pins

    VCC this is directly connected to the IC (there is no voltage regulator on board), connect this to 3.3V
    GND to ground obviously
    SCL signal from I2C
    SDA signal from I2C
    WAK this needs to be low (!) in order for the chip to be active
    INT can be left unconnected
    RST can be left unconnected
    ADD can be left unconnected. It has a 10k pull-down to GND, setting the I2C address to 0x5A.

Since my sensor is new, I used firmware 2.0.0 to allow initial burn-in compensation.
