ADXL278

Dual-Axis, High-g, iMEMS® Accelerometers ADXL278 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Complete dual-axis acceleration measurement system on a single monolithic IC Available in ±35 g/±35 g, ±50 g/±50 g, or ±70 g/±35 g output full-scale ranges Full differential sensor and circuitry for high resistance to EMI/RFI Environmentally robust packaging Complete mechanical and electrical self-test on digital command Output ratiometric to supply Sensitive axes in the plane of the chip High linearity (0.2% of full scale) Frequency response down to dc Low noise Low power consumption Tight sensitivity tolerance and 0 g offset capability Largest available prefilter clipping headroom 400 Hz, 2-pole Bessel filter Single-supply operation Compatible with Sn/Pb and Pb-free solder processes Qualified for automotive applications The ADXL278 is a low power, complete, dual-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned voltage outputs that are on a single monolithic IC. This product measures acceleration with a full-scale range of (X-axis/Y-axis) ±35 g/±35 g, ±50 g/ ±50 g, or ±70 g/±35 g (minimum). The ADXL278 can also measure both dynamic acceleration (vibration) and static acceleration (gravity). The ADXL278 is the fourth-generation surface micromachined iMEMS® accelerometer from ADI with enhanced performance and lower cost. Designed for use in front and side impact airbag applications, this product also provides a complete costeffective solution useful for a wide variety of other applications. The ADXL278...
