Sensing Solutions - Accelerometers

Image of Freescale Sensing Solutions Accelerometers

NXP Accelerometers are designed for end products and embedded systems that require measurement of forces resulting from fall, orientation, tap, double tap, tilt, jolt, motions, positioning, shake, shock or vibration.



Key Accelerometers in the NXP Family

The MMA8653FC and MMA8652FC are intelligent, low-power, three-axis, capacitive micromachined accelerometers with 10 and 12 bits of resolution, respectively. These accelerometers are packed with embedded functions with flexible user-programmable options, configurable to two interrupt pins. Embedded interrupt functions enable overall power savings by relieving the host processor from continuously polling data. There is access to either low- or high-pass filtered data, which minimizes the data analysis required for jolt detection and faster transitions. These devices can be configured to generate inertial wake-up interrupt signals from any combination of the configurable embedded functions, enabling them to monitor inertial events while remaining in a low-power mode during periods of inactivity. The MMA8652FC and MMA8653FC are available in a small 10-pin DFN package (2 mm x 2 mm x 1 mm).

MMA8652FCR1: 12-bit accelerometer has industry-leading performance in a small 2 x 2 x 1 mm DFN package.
