KX132-1211-EVK-001

KX132-1211-EVK-001 is an evaluation board for KX132-1211 accelerometer. KX132-1211 is a tri-axis ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, or ±16g silicon micro machined accelerometer featuring a user-configurable 3-stage ADP consisting of a low-pass filter, low-pass/high-pass filter, and RMS calculation engine. The KX132-1211 accelerometer also features an advanced wake-up and back-to-sleep detection with a high-resolution threshold capability configurable down to 3.9mg, 512byte buffer that continues to record data even when being read, as well as embedded engines for orientation, Directional-Tap/DoubleTap, and Free fall detection. 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.
