Description
High‑Resolution 3‑Axis MEMS Accelerometer – Adxl345
The ADXL345 is a compact, low‑power 3‑axis accelerometer that delivers high‑precision motion sensing for a wide range of applications, from mobile devices to industrial vibration monitoring. Built on a 3‑mm x 3‑mm silicon‑on‑insulator (SOI) MEMS structure, it offers selectable ±2, ±4, ±8, or ±16 g measurement ranges, 13‑bit digital resolution, and a flexible I²C/SPI interface that allows seamless integration into existing microcontroller or SoC designs. Its low current consumption in standby (≈50 µA) and active (≈3.1 mA) modes, combined with sub‑10 µg/√Hz noise performance, makes it ideal for both battery‑operated wearables and high‑density industrial systems.
Key design advantages include programmable data rates up to 3200 Hz, built‑in FIFO buffering, three‑mode tilt/step detection, and a versatile programmable low‑pass filter. The device operates over a wide voltage range (2.0–3.6 V) and features eight digital-old full‑scale output ports that support a variety of sensor‑fusion applications. Whether used in a consumer gadget, automotive safety system, or machine‑monitoring platform, the ADXL345 delivers reliable, accurate acceleration data with minimal design overhead.
