Accelerometers are an important type of motion sensor that detects changes in acceleration. They have become versatile devices that widely used in a variety of applications, ranging from smartphones to aircraft safety systems and machines. The PMMA3221KEG is an accelerometer designed for measurement of linear acceleration, and it is an ideal solution for vibration measurements in industrial and automotive applications.

This device is one of the most popular accelerometers in the market, due to its small size, wide working temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), strong performance in terms of accuracy (0.2 m/s²), and low price. It is a capacitive accelerometer, meaning that it uses a small mass to measure acceleration and convert it into an electrical output. The mass is attached to a flexible hinge and two electrodes. When a force is applied along the sensitive axis (the axis perpendicular to the electrodes), the mass moves and changes the distance between the electrodes. This change in distance is then interpreted as a change in capacitance and the output voltage signal is proportional to the applied force.

The PMMA3221KEG accelerometer can provide linear acceleration information in three orthogonal axes (x, y, z). The output signal can be used to detect driving comfort, vibration, shocks, road irregularities, machine movement and many more applications. These sensors also can be used for physical activity tracking, as they can detect and measuremotion on a variety of axes, such as a walking or running motion. This accelerometer is extremely suitable for health-oriented applications, such as activity recognition or monitoring.

The PMMA3221KEG accelerometer offers a comprehensive tuning feature. This feature allows adjustment of the output voltage curve to fit to the expectations set by the application. It uses two preset parameters, namely, Sensitivity and Offset. Sensitivity k determines the gain of the output voltage and is typically set according to the expected range of linear acceleration. The offset is useful to adjust the bias of the output signal.

The combination of the wide operating temperature range, high accuracy, small package and low price makes the PMMA3221KEG an ideal solution for automotive and industrial applications. This accelerometer offers the designers an easy and cost-effective way to measure linear movements in their devices.
