ADXL345 3 Axis Accelerometer Breakout For Arduino Z6321

he ADXL345 is a small, thin, low power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos complement and is accessible through either a SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I2C digital interface.

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 (4 mg/LSB) enables measurement of inclination changes less than 1.0°.

Features

• The digital output data is 16-bit two's complement format
• ADXL345 is low power consumption and a 3-axis accelerometer
• Suitable for portable device application.
• Great for microcontroller's experiment
• Capable of measuring less than 1 degree inclination angle change
• With free-fall detection function
• Activity and non-activity detection function, and detects if arbitrary axis acceleration exceeds a user-set limits
