Product Description

The KX003-1077 is a tri-axis ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, or ±16g silicon

micromachined accelerometer. The sense element is fabricated using

Kionix’s 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 and digital communications. The accelerometer is

delivered in a 2 x 2 x 0.9 mm LGA plastic package operating from a 1.71V – 3.6V DC supply. Voltage

regulators are used to maintain constant internal operating voltages over the range of input supply voltages.

This results in stable operating characteristics over the range of input supply voltages and virtually

undetectable ratiometric error. The I

2C digital protocol is used to communicate with the chip to configure

the part and monitor outputs.
