ST and Nu Horizons Introduce Two and Three-Axis Accelerometers basedon the MEMS Technology

Combining Small Size, High Resolution, Digital Output, and Low Power Consumption the LIS3LV02DQ and LIS3LV02DL sensors are well-suited for multiple applications including GPS Systems, White Goods, Sports, Robot Control, Navigation, Health and Safety Mobile Phones, PDAs and other Handheld Products

Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology is one of the most exciting areas in the field of “analog” technology.

Sensitive, compact and inexpensive sensors based on MEMS technology allow system designers to add new capabilities to their products that make them easier to use, more functional and more reliable. For example, in an Internet-enabled mobile phone or PDA, motion-sensing devices can be used to enable an intuitive user interface based on simple movements of the hand. In home appliances a vibration sensor chip can detect fault conditions and alert the user to the need for preventive maintenance before a failure occurs or even before a problem becomes perceptible.

Features
