Analog Devices ADXL213 Dual Axis Accelerometer Datasheet
The ADXL213 provides dual‑axis acceleration measurement on a single 5 mm × 5 mm × 2 mm LCC package. It outputs duty‑cycle‑modulated digital signals proportional to acceleration, allowing direct reading by a microcontroller without an ADC. The device operates from 3 V to 6 V, consumes 0.7–1.1 mA, and offers selectable bandwidths from 0.5 Hz to 250 Hz via external capacitors.
Automotive‑qualified models (ADXL213W) are available, and the part meets a 3500 g shock rating and a temperature range of –55 °C to +125 °C. Typical applications include tilt alarms, navigation, platform stabilization, and motion detection.
