EVAL-ADXL371Z

EVAL-ADXL371Z is a simple evaluation board that allows quick evaluation of the performance of the ADXL371 ultralow power, 3-axis, digital output MEMS accelerometer. The EVALADXL371Z is ideal for evaluation of the ADXL371 in an existing system because the stiffness and the small size of the evaluation board minimize the effect of the board on both the system and acceleration measurements. EVAL-ADXL371Z has two sets of 2.54mm spaced vias for populating the 5-pin headers that provide access to all power and signal lines. The vias or headers allow attachment of the evaluation board either to a prototyping board (breadboard) or to a printed circuit board (PCB) in an existing system. Four holes are provided that are set 15mm × 15mm at the corners of the PCB for mechanical attachment of the EVAL-ADXL371Z to the application fixture. An external host processor is required for communication to the device. The dimensions of the EVAL-ADXL371Z are 20mm × 20mm.

• 2 sets of spaced vias for population of 5-pin headers
• Easily attached to prototyping board or PCB
• Small size and board stiffness minimize impact on the system and acceleration measurements

Warnings

EVAL-ADXL371Z is not reverse polarity protected. Reversing the VS or VDDI/O supply and GND pins can cause damage to the ADXL371.
