PART NUMBER: 3g Tri-axis Accelerometer KXSS5-2057 Rev. 4 Specifications Feb-2013 Product Description The KXSS5-2057 is a Tri-axis, silicon micromachined accelerometer with a full-scale output range of +/-3g (29.4 m/s/s). The sense element is fabricated using Kionixs proprietary plasma micromachining process technology. Acceleration sensing is based on the principle of a differential capacitance arising from acceleration-induced motion of the sense element, which further utilizes common mode cancellation to decrease errors from process variation, temperature, and environmental stress. The sense element is hermetically sealed at the wafer level by bonding a second silicon lid wafer to the device using a glass frit. A separate ASIC device packaged with the sense element provides signal conditioning, self- test, and temperature compensation. The accelerometer is delivered in a 5 x 3 x 0.9 mm LGA plastic package operating from a 1.8 3.6V DC supply. The ASIC will trigger interrupt signals if an acceleration threshold is exceeded in any axis (motion interrupt), or if the total acceleration falls below a threshold (freefall interrupt). The thresholds can be set by the customer or 2 default to factory calibrated values. Either I C or SPI interfaces can be used to communicate to the chip to trigger A/D conversions, set thresholds or threshold delays, or manage power consumption.
