MEMS Accelerometer
Analog Devices, Inc. announces a 3-axis accelerometer to its iMEMS® family of motion signal processing products. The company has reduced the power consumption of the ADXL330 3-axis accelerometer to 200 µA at a supply voltage of 2.0 V. Designed with mobile phone handsets and other handheld consumer electronics products in mind, the ADXL330 features a 3-axis sensor structure integrated with signal conditioning on the same die and housed in a (4 × 4 × 1.45 mm) plastic surface mount package. The device is suited for a range of consumer product applications requiring low power, small packaging, and reliable 3-axis sensing. The ADXL330 features signal conditioned analog voltage outputs. With a 2 g range, it is capable of measuring the static acceleration of gravity for tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration. Supply voltage range for the accelerometer is 2.0 to 3.6 V. It is compatible with applications requiring bandwidths ranging from 0.5 Hz to 1.6 kHz.
