Triple Axis Accelerometer - LIS331HH

The LIS331HH is an ultra low-power full-scale three axis linear MEMS accelerometer. It has a digital I2C/SPI serial interface which makes it ideal for using in embedded applications. The device also features ultra low-power operational modes that allow advanced power saving and smart sleep to wake-up functions.

The LIS331HH has dynamically user selectable full scales of +-6g/+-12g/+-24g and is capable of measuring accelerations with output data rates from 0.5 Hz to 1kHz. The self-test capability allows the user to check the functioning of the sensor in the final application.

  • 2.16-3.6V input
  • Ultra low-current mode, down to 10uA
  • 6g/12g/24g selectable
  • I2C/SPI digital output
  • 16 bit data output
  • 3 x 3 x 1mm LGA

Triple Axis Accelerometer - LIS331HH Product Help and Resources

Core Skill: Soldering

This skill defines how difficult the soldering is on a particular product. It might be a couple simple solder joints, or require special reflow tools.

3 Soldering

Skill Level: Competent - You will encounter surface mount components and basic SMD soldering techniques are required.
See all skill levels


Core Skill: Programming

If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.

3 Programming

Skill Level: Competent - The toolchain for programming is a bit more complex and will examples may not be explicitly provided for you. You will be required to have a fundamental knowledge of programming and be required to provide your own code. You may need to modify existing libraries or code to work with your specific hardware. Sensor and hardware interfaces will be SPI or I2C.

Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping

If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.

3 Electrical Prototyping

Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.

    Will there be a breakout board for this? Pretty please?

  • sergiu / about 14 years ago / 1

    Oh yeah these are really tiny . Mounting them by hand might seem impossible , but nevertheless was done:<br />
    <br />
    See surface mount on the budget<br />
    <br />
    Do yourself a favor and buy a breakout !!!<br />
