DESCRIPTION

This SparkFun Triple-Axis Accelerometer Breakout is a simple Qwiic breakout for the KX132 digital accelerometer from Kionix. The KX132 is a low-power, 16-bit resolution three-axis accelerometer with four user-selectable acceleration measurement ranges of ±2g/4g/8g/16g and has up to a 10kHz (max) output data rate making it ideal for a wide range of acceleration measurements as well as high-speed applications such as vibration and tap sensing.

The KX132 includes a host of features including Freefall detection, Directional Tap™ and Double-Tap™ detection, tilt orientation detection and more. The Qwiic KX132 can interface with controllers using both I2C and SPI at high speeds so you can use it in an existing Qwiic/I2C chain or on a SPI bus.

FEATURES
  • Measurement Range: ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, ±16g (User Selectable)
  • High Resolution (8 or 16-bit)
  • User-Configurable Output Data Rate (ODR) up to 25600Hz

  • Low Noise: 130µg/√Hz (varies based on ODR, power mode & other settings)
  • High Resolution Wake-Up & Back-to-Sleep Detection with configurable threshold as low as 3.9mg
  • 512-byte FIFO buffer that continues recording data while being read
  • Selectable Low-Power or High-Performance operating modes
  • Low Power with Integrated Voltage Regulator
    • High Performance Operating Current Consumption (400Hz ODR + Wake-Up Detection): 148µA
    • Low Power Operating Current Consumption (0.781Hz ODR + Wake-Up Detection): 0.53µA
    • Standby Current Consumption: 0.5µA
