PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
These high-performance silicon micromachined linear
accelerometers and inclinometers consists of a sensor
element and an ASIC packaged in a 5x5x1.2mm Dual
Flat No-lead (DFN). 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 wafer at
the wafer level.
The KXPA4 series is designed to provide a high signal-tonoise ratio with excellent performance over temperature.
These sensors can accept supply voltages between 2.7V
and 5.25V. Sensitivity is factory programmable allowing
customization for applications requiring ±1.5g to ±6.0g
ranges. Sensor bandwidth is user-definable.
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, using a standard CMOS manufacturing process, detects and transforms changes in capacitance into an analog output voltage, which is proportional
to acceleration. The analog output is also accessed
through an on-board 3 channel multiplexor. The sense
element design utilizes common mode cancellation to
decrease
errors
from
process
variation
and
environmental stress.

Notes
1
The performance parameters are programmed and tested at 2.8 volts (KXPA4-1050) and 3.3V (KXPA4-2050). However, the
device can be factory programmed to accept supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.25 V. Operation at reduced supply voltages,
down to 2.6 V, can be achieved by narrowing the operating temperature range. Performance parameters will change with
supply voltage variations.
2
Custom ranges from 1.5g to 6g available.
3
Temperature range for specified offset.
4
Lower bandwidth can be achieved by using the external C2 , C3 , and C4 (see application note on page 3).
5
32K Ω resistor connects the output amplifier to the output pin. Resistive loading may reduce sensitivity or cause a shift in
offset. Maintaining a load resistance at 3.2M Ω will prevent appreciable changes.
6
The power-up time will increase or decrease according to bandwidth (5RC).
7
0g offset and sensitivity change linearly with temperature.

KXPA4 Pin Descriptions
GND – Ground
PS — Power shutdown pin. When the PS pin is connected to GND or left floating, the KXPA4 is shutdown and drawing very little
power. When the PS pin is tied to Vdd, the unit is fully functional.
Self Test — The output of a properly functioning part will increase when Vdd is applied to the self-test pin. When NOT in use,
this pin must be tied to ground.
SO — MUX select
S1 — MUX select
X Output – Analog X output
Vdd – Power supply
Y Output – Analog Y output
Vmux — Multiplexed analog output
Z Output – Analog Z output
Application Design Equations
The bandwidth is determined by the filter capacitors connected from pins 3, 4 and 5 to ground. The response is single pole.
Given a desired bandwidth, fBW, the filter capacitors are determined by:
4 . 97 x10 − 6
C2 = C3 = C4 =
f BW
Notes
1. Recommend using 0.1 µF for decoupling capacitor C1.
