APPLICATIONS

Cost-sensitive, low power, motion- and tilt-sensing applications Mobile devices Gaming systems Disk drive protection Image stabilization Sports and health devices GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADXL337 is a small, thin, low power, complete 3-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned voltage outputs. The product measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of ±3 g. It can measure the static acceleration of gravity in tilt- sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration. The user selects the bandwidth of the accelerometer using the C X, CY, and CZ capacitors at the XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT pins. Bandwidths can be selected to suit the application, with a range of 0.5 Hz to 1600 Hz for X and Y axes and a range of 0.5 Hz to 550 Hz for the Z axis. The ADXL337 is available in a small, low profile, 3 mm × 3 mm × 1.45 mm, 16-lead, lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP_LQ).

Rev. 0 | Page 10 of 16 THEORY OF OPERATION The ADXL337 is a complete 3-axis acceleration measurement system. The ADXL337 has a measurement range of ±3 g minimum. It contains a polysilicon surface micromachined sensor and signal conditioning circuitry to implement an open-loop acceleration measurement architecture. The output signals are analog voltages that are proportional to acceleration. The accelerometer can measure the static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration. The sensor is a polysilicon surface micromachined structure built on top of a silicon wafer. Polysilicon springs suspend the structure over the surface of the wafer and provide a resistance against acceleration forces. Deflection of the structure is measured using a differential capacitor that consists of independent fixed plates and plates attached to the moving mass. The fixed plates are driven by 180° out-of-phase square waves. Acceleration deflects the moving mass and unbalances the differential capacitor resulting in a sensor output whose amplitude is proportional to acceleration. Phase-sensitive demodulation techniques are then used to determine the magnitude and direction of the acceleration. The demodulator output is amplified and brought off chip through a 32 kΩ resistor. The user then sets the signal bandwidth (BW) of the device by adding a capacitor. This filtering improves measurement resolution and helps prevent aliasing. MECHANICAL SENSOR The ADXL337 uses a single structure for sensing the X, Y , and Z axes. As a result, the three axes sense directions are highly orthogonal with little cross-axis sensitivity. Mechanical misalignment of the sensor die to the package is the chief source of cross-axis sensitivity. Mechanical misalignment can be calibrated out at the system level. PERFORMANCE Rather than using additional temperature compensation circuitry, innovative design techniques ensure that high performance is built into the ADXL337. As a result, there is neither quantization error nor nonmonotonic behavior, and temperature hysteresis is very low (typically less than 3 mg over the −25°C to +85°C temperature range).

similar effect as noise transmitted through VS. CY, and CZ is recommended in all cases. Table 4.
