AIS326DQ MEMS inertial sensor 3-axis, low g accelerometer with digital output Features 3.3 V single supply operation 1.8 V compatible IOs SPI digital output interface 12 bit resolution Interrupt activated by motion Programmable interrupt threshold QFPN-28 Embedded self-test High shock survivability ECOPACK compliant process developed by ST to produce inertial sensors and actuators in silicon. Extended temperature range -40 C to +105 C The IC interface instead is manufactured using a CMOS process that allows high level of Applications integration to design a dedicated circuit which is Anti-theft systems and inertial navigation factory trimmed to better match the sensing element characteristics. Motion activated functions Vibration monitoring and compensation The AIS326DQ has a user selectable full scale of 2 g, 6 g and it is capable of measuring Tilt measurements acceleration over a bandwidth of 640 Hz for all Black boxes, event recorders axes. The device bandwidth may be selected accordingly to the application requirements. The Description self-test capability allows the user to check the functioning of the system. The AIS326DQ is a three axes digital output The device is available in plastic quad flat accelerometer that includes a sensing element package no lead surface mount (QFPN) and it is and an IC interface able to take the information specified over a temperature range extending from the sensing element and to provide the from -40 C to +105 C. measured acceleration signals to the external world through an SPI serial interface. I C compatible interface is also available. The sensing element, capable of detecting the acceleration, is manufactured using a dedicated Table 1.
