NOTES:
1. For a loaded output the measurements are observed after an RC filter consisting of a 1 k
resistor and a 0.01
μ
F capacitor to ground.
2. The device is calibrated at 20g.
3. The device can measure both + and acceleration. With no input acceleration the output is at midsupply. For positive acceleration the output
will increase above VDD/2 and for negative acceleration the output will decrease below VDD/2.
4. Refer to the Principle of Operation section for a sample g range calculation.
5. Refer to the Principle of Operation section for a sample rms to peak to peak calculation.
6. At clock frequency
65 kHz.
7. The digital input pin has an internal pull–down current source to prevent inadvertent self test initiation due to external board level leakages.
8. Time for the output to reach 90% of its final value after a self–test is initiated.
9. Time for amplifiers to recover after an acceleration signal causing them to saturate.
10. Preserves phase margin (60
°
) to guarantee output amplifier stability.
11. A measure of the devices ability to reject an acceleration applied 90
°
from the true axis of sensitivity.
