About this manual

The ADXL330 is a compact, low‑profile 3‑axis MEMS accelerometer that provides signal‑conditioned voltage outputs on a single monolithic IC. It operates from a single supply of 2.0 V to 3.6 V and is designed for cost‑sensitive motion‑ and tilt‑sensing applications such as mobile devices, gaming systems, and health devices.

Bandwidth for each axis is set with a single external capacitor (Cx, Cy, Cz), allowing users to tailor the frequency response from 0.5 Hz up to 1.6 kHz (X/Y) or 550 Hz (Z). The device offers low power consumption (≈320 µA at 3 V) and robust specifications, including a 10,000 g shock rating and operation from –25 °C to +70 °C.
