The Three-Axis Accelerometer Board features an ADXL330 small, thin, low-power, complete 3-axis accelerometer with signal-conditioned voltage outputs. It measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of ±3g. It can measure static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock or vibration. The ADXL330 is used in cost-sensitive, low-power, motion- and tilt-sensing applications such as mobile devices, gaming systems, disk drive protection, image stabilization, sports and health devices, etc.

The connection pads are unpopulated, so you can decide how to connect the board to your system. Male header pins are provided that you can solder, for typical breadboard use.

Note: This board uses 5V power supply only.
