HDS-1250G ADIS16201 handbook

ADIS16201 Rev. A is a programmable dual-axis inclinometer/accelerometer with 12-bit and 14-bit digital inclination/acceleration sensor outputs. It can measure a +1.7 g accelerometer range and a +90° inclinometer range with linear output. It also has a 12-bit digital temperature sensor output. The device features digitally controlled sensitivity and bias calibration, sample rate, and frequency response. It has dual alarm settings with rate/threshold limits, auxiliary digital I/O, digitally activated self test, digitally activated low power mode, SPI-compatible serial interface, auxiliary 12-bit ADC input and DAC output, and single-supply operation. It is suitable for platform control, stabilization, and leveling, tilt sensing, inclinometers, motion/position measurement, and monitoring applications.
