ADXL335 3 axis accelerometer

The ADXL335 is a small, thin, low-power, three-axis accelerometer with a high level of accuracy. It measures acceleration along the X, Y, and Z axes, making it suitable for applications requiring precise acceleration data, such as motion detection, tilt sensing, and vibration monitoring.

Key Features:

• Measures acceleration in three axes (X, Y, Z)
• Low power consumption
• Wide measurement range: ±3g
• High resolution and accuracy
• Analog output voltage proportional to acceleration
• Compact size for easy integration

Technical Specifications:

• Measurement Range: ±3g
• Output Type: Analog
• Supply Voltage: 1.8V to 3.6V
• Sensitivity: 300mV/g (typical)
• Output Voltage Range: 0.5V to 2.5V (at 3.3V supply)
• Bandwidth: 0.5Hz to 1600Hz (depending on configuration)
• Power Consumption: 350μA (typical)
• Package Type: LGA-16 (3mm x 3mm x 1.1mm)

Applications:

• Motion detection and control
• Tilt sensing
• Vibration monitoring
• Gaming and motion-based user interfaces
• Robotics and automation
• Health and fitness devices

Usage:

1. Connect the VCC pin to the supply voltage (1.8V to 3.6V).
2. Connect the GND pin to the ground.
3. Read the analog output voltages from the X, Y, and Z pins.
4. Use the output voltages to determine the acceleration in each axis.

Caution:

• Ensure that the supply voltage does not exceed the maximum rating of 3.6V.
• Avoid exposing the sensor to mechanical shocks beyond its specified range.
• Properly handle the sensor to avoid damage during integration and operation.
