EVAL-ADXL354/EVAL-ADXL355 User Guide UG-1030 One Technology Way P.O. Box 9106 Norwood, MA 02062-9106, U.S.A. Tel: 781.329.4700 Fax: 781.461.3113 www.analog.com Evaluating the ADXL354/ADXL355 Low Noise, Low Drift, Low Power, 3-Axis MEMS Accelerometers FEATURES PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT 2 sets of spaced vias for populating 6-pin headers Easily attachable to prototyping board or PCB Small size and board stiffness minimize impact on the system being monitored and acceleration measurements EQUIPMENT NEEDED External host processor DOCUMENTS NEEDED ADXL354/ADXL355 data sheet GENERAL DESCRIPTION The EVAL-ADXL354BZ, EVAL-ADXL354CZ, and EVAL- ADXL355Z are simple evaluation boards that allow quick evaluation of the performance of the ADXL354 and the ADXL355 low noise, low power, 3-axis, MEMS accelerometer. The EVAL- ADXL354BZ is an analog output supporting a 2 g or 4 g accelerometer the EVAL-ADXL354CZ is an analog output supporting a 2 g or 8 g accelerometer and the EVAL-ADXL355Z Figure 1. EVAL-ADXL354BZ and EVAL-ADXL354CZ Evaluation Boards is a digital output supporting 2 g, 4 g, or 8 g. These evaluation boards are ideal for evaluating the ADXL354 and ADXL355 in an existing system because the stiffness and small size of the evaluation board minimizes the effect of the evaluation board on both the system and acceleration measurements. Full details about the ADXL354/ADXL355 are available in the ADXL354/ADXL355 data sheet, which is available from Analog Devices, Inc., and should be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when using this evaluation board.
