KXTH9 Series Accelerometers and Inclinometers FEATURES MARKETS APPLICATIONS Ultra-small Package - 3x3x0.9mm LGA Ultra-mobile PCs/Laptops/Hard Disk Drives Low Power Consumption Multiplexed Analog Output Free-fall Detection Cell Phones and Handheld PDAs Factory-programmable Internal Low Pass Filter Ultra-low Noise Density Gesture Recognition and User Interface Function Game Controllers & Computer Peripherals Lead-free Solderability Excellent Temperature Performance Inclination and Tilt Sensing Personal Navigation Devices Inertial Navigation and Dead Reckoning High Shock Survivability Factory-programmable Offset and Sensitivity Cameras and Video Equipment Image Stabilization Auxiliary Input to Multiplexer Self-test Function Sports Diagnostic Equipment/Pedometers Static or Dynamic Acceleration PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY The KXTH9 series is designed to provide a high signal-to-noise ratio with excellent performance over temperature. These sensors can accept supply voltages between 1.8V and 3.6V. Sensitivity is factory programmable allowing customization for applications requiring from 1.5g to 6.0g ranges. The auxiliary input to the multiplexer minimizes the need for external A/D converters. These high-performance silicon micromachined linear accelerometers and inclinometers consist of a sensor element and an ASIC packaged in a 3x3x0.9 mm Land Grid Array (LGA). The sensor element is fabricated from single-crystal silicon with proprietary Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE) processes, and is protected from the environment by a hermetically-sealed silicon cap at the wafer level. Place holder for new photo. The sensor element functions on the principle of differential capacitance. Acceleration causes displacement of a silicon structure resulting in a change in capacitance. An ASIC, fabricated using a standard CMOS manufacturing process, detects and transforms changes in capacitance into an analog output voltage, which is proportional to acceleration. 36 Thornwood Dr. - Ithaca, NY 14850 USA tel: 607-257-1080 - fax: 607-257-1146 - www.kionix.com - [email protected] “Kionix” is a registered trademark of Kionix, Inc.
