±2g/±4g/±8g, Low g, 12-Bit Digital Accelerometer
- This page contains information on a product that is not recommended for new designs.
This product is in “End of Life” status, we recommend FXLS8971CF or FXLS8974CF as a replacement. In cases where MMA845xQ is absolutely required, customers may reach out to Rochester electronics to check available stock.
The NXP MMA8452Q is a low-power, three-axis capacitive micromachined accelerometer with 12 bits of resolution, featuring:
- Embedded functions with flexible user-programmable options, configurable to two interrupt pins
- Embedded interrupt functions for overall power savings relieving the host processor from continuously polling data
- User-selectable full scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g with high-pass filtered data as well as non-filtered data available real-time
- Inertial wake-up interrupt signals from any combination of the configurable embedded functions allowing the MMA8452Q to monitor events and remain in a low-power mode during periods of inactivity
