Overview
The ADXL330KCPZ-RL is a small, low power, complete 3-axis accelerometer produced by Analog Devices Inc. This device is integrated on a single monolithic IC and features signal-conditioned voltage outputs. It measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of ±3 g, making it suitable for both static and dynamic acceleration measurements, including tilt-sensing applications, motion, shock, or vibration. The ADXL330 is housed in a 4 mm × 4 mm × 1.45 mm, 16-lead plastic lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP_LQ), ensuring a compact and low-profile design.
