The Crossbow CXTD02 digital tilt and acceleration sensor provides high‑resolution tilt measurement over a 360° roll and 180° pitch range with RS‑232 output.
The CXTD02 is a digital tilt and acceleration sensor that uses a triaxial MEMS accelerometer to measure tilt over a full 360° roll and 180° pitch range. It is fully temperature‑calibrated for operation from –40 °C to +85 °C and includes an on‑board DSP for alignment, scale factor and non‑linearity compensation.
The sensor outputs data via a digital RS‑232 interface, eliminating the need for external ADC cards. It is suited for seismic and structural monitoring, offering a high update rate, low noise floor and a compact 15‑pin sub‑miniature connector.
