ADXL312 Overview
The ADXL3121 is a small, thin, low power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement up to ±12 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos plement and is accessible through either a serial port interface (SPI) (3- or 4-wire) or I2C digital interface. The ADXL312 is well suited for car alarm or black box applications.
