Analog Devices Inc. ADXL356/ADXL357 3-Axis MEMS Accelerometers

Analog Devices Inc. ADXL356/ADXL357 3-Axis MEMS Accelerometers are analog (ADXL356) or digital output (ADXL357) MEMS accelerometers that provide low noise density, low 0g offset drift, and low power with selectable measurement ranges. The ADXL356B modules support the ±10g and ±20g ranges, the ADXL356C variant supports the ±10g and ±40g ranges, and the ADXL357 devices support the ±10.24g, ±20.48g, and ±40.96g ranges. Analog Devices Inc. ADXL356/ADXL357 3-Axis MEMS Accelerometers are available in a 14-terminal, 6mm x 5.6mm x 2.05mm LCC package. Typical applications include robotics, platform stabilization systems, structural health monitoring, seismic imaging, tilt sensing, and more.
