General Description
1.1
Introduction
CMA3000-A0X is a three axis accelerometer family targeted for high volume products requiring
small size, low price and low power consumption. It consists of a 3D-MEMS sensing element and a
signal conditioning ASIC in a wafer level package.
Both block diagram of CMA3000-A0X is shown in Figure 1 below.

This document, no. 82821000, describes the product specification (e.g. operation modes, electrical
properties and application information) for the CMA3000-A0X family. The specification for an
individual sensor is available in the corresponding data sheet.
1.2
1.2.1
Functional Description
Sensing element
The sensing element is manufactured using the proprietary bulk 3D-MEMS process, which enables
robust, stable and low noise & power capacitive sensors.
The sensing element consists of three acceleration sensitive masses. Acceleration will cause a
capacitance change that will be then converted into a voltage change in the signal conditioning
ASIC.
1.2.2
Interface IC
CMA3000 includes an internal oscillator, reference and non-volatile memory that enable the
sensor's autonomous operation within a system.
The sensing element is interfaced via a capacitance-to-voltage (CV) converter. Following
calibration in the analog domain, the signal is filtered and buffered.
In active mode analog voltages representing the measured acceleration are available X-, Y-, Z-out
pins. Power Down and measurement range can be selected using external Range ('0'=8g, '1'=2g)
and PD ( '0' =Active, '1'= Power Down ) pins.
1.2.3
Factory calibration
Sensors are factory calibrated. Trimmed parameters are gain, offset, internal current reference and
the frequency of the internal oscillator. Calibration parameters will be read automatically from the
internal non-volatile memory during sensor startup.

range during qualification. Correct mounting position of component is important during the
measurement of cross-axis sensitivity.

Turn-on time
Turn-on time is the time when the last of one X, Y, Z axis output readings stabilizes into its final
value after XRESET is pulled high. The final value limits in turn-on time measurements is defined to
be ±1 % of the sensor’s full scale measuring range (for example for CMA3000-A01 ±2g →
FS = 2 g). Turn-on time definition for Z-axis is presented in Figure 13 below.

Known issues
Sensing element's bandwidth is lower than the target
Due to design issue (to be corrected) sensing element's mechanical bandwidth is lower than the
target. As a result, without external load capacitors the bandwidth to X and Z direction is typically
90 Hz and to Y direction typically 150 Hz.
