Der ADXL345 ist ein stromsparender (40µA beim Messen, 0,1µA im StandBy) 3-Achsen Beschleunigungssensor, mit einer Auflösung von 13-Bit ist er sehr genau (4mg/LSB).
Die Messadten lassen sich über SPI (3 oder 4 Wire Betrieb) oder I2C auslesen.

Der Sensor enthält zahlreiche eingebaute Funktionen, wie z.B. Freie Fall Erkennung, Überschreitung eines Voreingestellten Messwertes.

Technische Daten:

• 2.0-3.6VDC Supply Voltage
• Ultra Low Power: 40uA in measurement mode, 0.1uA in standby@ 2.5V
• Tap/Double Tap Detection
• Free-Fall Detection
• SPI and I2C interfaces
