ADXL335 Small, Low Power, 3-Axis ±3 g Accelerometer

Analog Devices' ADXL335 complete, low-power 3-axis accelerometer measures dynamic acceleration

Image of Analog Devices' ADXL335: Small, Low Power, 3-Axis ±3 g Accelerometer ADI's ADXL335 complete, low-power 3-axis accelerometer measures dynamic acceleration (motion, shock, or vibration) and static acceleration (tilt or gravity) over a ±3 g range with 0.3% nonlinearity and 0.01%/°C temperature stability.

The user selects the bandwidth of the accelerometer using the CX, CY, and CZ capacitors at the XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT pins. Measurement bandwidth can be selected to suit the application from 0.5 Hz to 1600 Hz for X- and Y- axes and from 0.5 Hz to 550 Hz for the Z-axis. Operating on a single 1.8 V to 3.6 V supply, the ADXL335 consumes 350 µA. Available in a 16-lead LFCSP package, it is specified from -40°C to +85°C.
