KXCJB-1041

Kionix / ROHM Semiconductor KX Tri-Axis Digital Accelerometers are silicon micromachined accelerometers. The sense element is fabricated using Kionix's proprietary plasma micromachining process technology. 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 and digital communications or intelligent user-programmable application algorithms. These accelerometers are delivered in a small LGA plastic package operating from 1.71 - 3.6V DC supply. Voltage regulators are used to maintain constant internal operating voltages over the range of input supply voltages. Due to this, the KX Tri-Axis accelerometers feature stable operating characteristics over the range of input supply voltages and virtually undetectable ratiometric error. I2C or SPI digital protocol is used to communicate with the chip to configure the part and monitor outputs.
