Description 

Grove - ADXL345 is a small, thin, ultra low power 3-axis accelerometer, providing high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. 

The ADXL345 is well suited for mobile device applications. It measures the static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion or shock. Its high resolution (3.9 mg/LSB) enables measurement of inclination changes less than 1.0°.

Grove - ADXL345 is with the extreme low power consumption, as low as 23 μA in measurement mode and 0.1 μA in standby mode. The Low power modes enable intelligent motion-based power management with threshold sensing and active acceleration measurement at extremely low power dissipation. 

Application

Based on the excellent ADXL-345, this digital 3-axis accelerometer has excellent EMI protection. Its variable output makes it suitable for a wide range of applications:

• HDD shock protection

• Vibration sensor

• Game controller input

• Robotics

• Smart vehicles

• Anywhere you need to obtain motion-sensing & orientation information.
