±2g/±4g/±8g, Low g, 14-bit Digital Accelerometer

MMA8451Q

Roll over image to zoom in

The NXP® MMA8451Q is a low-power, three-axis capacitive micromachined accelerometer with 14 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
  • Access to both low-pass filtered data as well as high-pass filtered data, which minimizes the data analysis required for jolt detection and faster transitions
  • Inertial wake-up interrupt signals from any combination of the configurable embedded functions allowing the MMA8451Q to monitor events and remain in a low-power mode during periods of inactivity
