GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADXL335 is a small, thin, low power, complete 3-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned voltage outputs. The product measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of 3 g. It can measure the static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration. The user selects the bandwidth of the accelerometer using the CX, CY, and CZ capacitors at the XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT pins. Bandwidths can be selected to suit the application, with a range of 0.5 Hz to 1600 Hz for the X and Y axes, and a range of 0.5 Hz to 550 Hz for the Z axis. The ADXL335 is available in a small, low profile, 4 mm 4 mm 1.45 mm, 16-lead, plastic lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP_LQ).

MECHANICAL SENSOR
The ADXL335 uses a single structure for sensing the X, Y, and Z axes. As a result, the three axes sense directions are highly orthogonal and have little cross-axis sensitivity. Mechanical misalignment of the sensor die to the package is the chief source of cross-axis sensitivity. Mechanical misalignment can, of course, be calibrated out at the system level.
PERFORMANCE
Rather than using additional temperature compensation circuitry, innovative design techniques ensure that high performance is built in to the ADXL335. As a result, there is no quantization error or nonmonotonic behavior, and temperature hysteresis is very low (typically less than 3 mg over the 25C to +70C temperature range).
Rev. 0 | Page 10 of 16
It is often useful to know the peak value of the noise. Peak-topeak noise can only be estimated by statistical methods. Table 5 is useful for estimating the probabilities of exceeding various peak values, given the rms value. Table 5. Estimation of Peak-to-Peak Noise
Peak-to-Peak Value 2 rms 4 rms 6 rms 8 rms % of Time That Noise Exceeds Nominal Peak-to-Peak Value 32 4.6 0.27 0.006
SELF-TEST
The ST pin controls the self-test feature. When this pin is set to VS, an electrostatic force is exerted on the accelerometer beam. The resulting movement of the beam allows the user to test if the accelerometer is functional. The typical change in output is 1.08 g (corresponding to 325 mV) in the X-axis, +1.08 g (or +325 mV) on the Y-axis, and +1.83 g (or +550 mV) on the Z-axis. This ST pin can be left open-circuit or connected to common (COM) in normal use.

ADXL335
The ADXL335 output is ratiometric, therefore, the output sensitivity (or scale factor) varies proportionally to the supply voltage. At VS = 3.6 V, the output sensitivity is typically 360 mV/g. At VS = 2 V, the output sensitivity is typically 195 mV/g. The zero g bias output is also ratiometric, thus the zero g output is nominally equal to VS/2 at all supply voltages. The output noise is not ratiometric but is absolute in volts; therefore, the noise density decreases as the supply voltage increases. This is because the scale factor (mV/g) increases while the noise voltage remains constant. At VS = 3.6 V, the X-axis and Y-axis noise density is typically 120 g/Hz, whereas at VS = 2 V, the X-axis and Y-axis noise density is typically 270 g/Hz. Self-test response in g is roughly proportional to the square of the supply voltage. However, when ratiometricity of sensitivity is factored in with supply voltage, the self-test response in volts is roughly proportional to the cube of the supply voltage. For example, at VS = 3.6 V, the self-test response for the ADXL335 is approximately 560 mV for the X-axis, +560 mV for the Y-axis, and +950 mV for the Z-axis.
XOUT = 1g YOUT = 0g ZOUT = 0g
At VS = 2 V, the self-test response is approximately 96 mV for the X-axis, +96 mV for the Y-axis, and 163 mV for the Z-axis. The supply current decreases as the supply voltage decreases. Typical current consumption at VS = 3.6 V is 375 A, and typical current consumption at VS = 2 V is 200 A.
