Accelerometers turn motion into measurable signals. From tilt and vibration to g-forces, they underpin countless designs. In this “Fun with Fundamentals” entry, we demystify their operation and take a ...
Dmitry Vasilenko, of Arrow Electronics, provides some design hints to accelerate the mechanical model of an accelerometer. Micro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have become common. They are used for ...
A tiny 3-axis MEMS accelerometer, the LIS2DTW12 from STMicroelectronics embeds a temperature sensor that boasts typical accuracy of 0.8°C. The device’s thin 2×2×0.7-mm LGA-12 plastic package allows it ...
The LIS2DTW12, from STMicroelectronics, combines a MEMS 3-axis accelerometer and a temperature sensor on a single die for use in space-constrained and battery-sensitive detectors. The device is ...
The BMA530 and BMA580 from Bosch Sensortec leverage cutting-edge sensor technology that enhance the capabilities of hearables. They include features such as gesture and context recognition, speech ...
Miniature smart sensor combines 3-axis digital accelerometer with embedded microcontroller, operating as sensor hub that runs sensor-fusion algorithms, together in ultra-compact package called iNEMO-A ...
iPhone sensors like accelerometers and LiDAR do way more than you think-from measuring spices to hands-free cooking and identifying mystery ingredients.
STMicroelectronics is aiming at healthcare wearables with an IC that senses bio-potentials and acceleration, and includes an AI processor and a finite state-machine for pedometer, step detection and ...
