A single axis accelerometer measures acceleration in only one direction. If positioned so the direction is up and down it will measure the force of gravity but will not detect horizontal acceleration.

Figure 7. A 2-axis accelerometer. There are two ways to construct a two-axis accelerometer: lay out the two different single-axis accelerometer sensors perpendicular to each other, or use a single ...

The DXI 100/200 Series of single and dual-axis inclinometers and the DXA 100/200 Series of single and dual-axis accelerometers feature a digital output with a resolution of 0.001°; provide both ...

Model 1521 is offered in eight standard ranges from ±2g to ±400g. Each has a ±4V differential output and comes in a choice of 20pin LCC or J-lead surface mount packages, both of which are nitrogen gas ...

Available in eight unique ranges from ±2 to ±400 g, design of the Silicon Designs model 2466 series combines three orthogonally mounted single axis accelerometers within an epoxy sealed anodized ...

Smartphones and other mobile technology identify their orientation through the use of an accelerator, a small device made up of axis-based motion sensing. An accelerometer is an electromechanical ...

It can house a rate sensor and accelerometer in one package. Configurations can range from a single axis rate sensor coupled with a single axis accelerometer to multiple rate sensors built with ...

a six-axis sensor, at the Freescale Technology Forum (FTF) on Monday, June 18 th. This is not just the joining of two ICs in one package but a combination of a high resolution motion sensing and ...
