Low Cost ±1.2 g Dual Axis Accelerometer ADXL213 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Dual axis accelerometer on a single IC chip
The ADXL213 is a low cost, low power, complete dual axis
5 mm × 5 mm × 2 mm LCC package
accelerometer with signal conditioned, duty cycle modulated
1 mg resolution at 60 Hz
outputs, all on a single monolithic IC. The ADXL213 measures
Low power: 700 μA at VS = 5 V (typical)
acceleration with a full-scale range of ±1.2 g (typical). The
High zero g bias stability
ADXL213 can measure both dynamic acceleration (e.g.,
High sensitivity accuracy
vibration) and static acceleration (e.g., gravity).
Pulse width modulated digital outputs X and Y axes aligned to within 0.1° (typical)
The outputs are digital signals whose duty cycles (ratio of pulse
BW adjustment with a single capacitor
width to period) are proportional to acceleration (30%/g). The
Single-supply operation
duty cycle outputs can be directly measured by a microcontrol-
3500 g shock survival
ler without an A/D converter or glue logic.
Qualified for automotive applications
Innovative design techniques are used to ensure high zero g bias stability (typically better than 0.25 mg/°C), as well as tight sensi-

Automotive tilt alarms Data projectors
The typical noise floor is 160 μg/√Hz, allowing signals below

tions using narrow bandwidths (<60 Hz).
Alarms and motion detectors High accuracy, 2-axis tilt sensing
The user selects the bandwidth of the accelerometer using capacitors CX and CY at the XFILT and YFILT pins. Bandwidths of 0.5 Hz to 250 Hz may be selected to suit the application. The ADXL213 is available in a 5 mm × 5 mm × 2 mm, 8-pad hermetic LCC package.
