Motorola MMA1200D Accelerometer Datasheet
The MMA1200D is a surface‑micromachined silicon capacitive accelerometer with integrated signal‑conditioning, a 4‑pole Bessel low‑pass filter, and temperature compensation. It offers a linear output, self‑test capability, and fault‑latch status monitoring, making it suitable for vibration, impact, and airbag applications.
The datasheet lists electrical ratings, mechanical characteristics, package dimensions, and recommended PCB layout. Key parameters such as supply voltage range, sensitivity, bandwidth, and zero‑g output are provided, along with pin assignments and ordering information for the SOIC‑16 (Case 475‑01) package.

Questions answered in these manuals
What is the supply voltage range for the MMA1200D?
The device operates from 0.3 V up to +7.0 V supply voltage.
How does the self‑test function work?
Applying a logic high to the self‑test pin drives a calibrated potential across a dedicated test plate, causing the sensing plate to deflect; the resulting output verifies both mechanical and electrical integrity.
