LSM303C Ultra-compact high-performance eCompass module: 3D accelerometer and 3D magnetometer Datasheet - production data Impact recognition and logging Vibration monitoring and compensation Description The LSM303C is a system-in-package featuring a LGA-12 (2.0x2.0x1.0 mm) 3D digital linear acceleration sensor and a 3D digital magnetic sensor. Features The LSM303C has linear acceleration full scales of 2 g / 4 g / 8 g and a magnetic field full scale 3 magnetic field channels and 3 acceleration of 16 gauss. channels 2 The LSM303C includes an I C serial bus 16 gauss magnetic full scale interface that supports standard and fast mode 2/4/8 g selectable acceleration full scale (100 kHz and 400 kHz) and an SPI serial 16-bit data output standard interface. 2 SPI / I C serial interfaces The system can be configured to generate an Analog supply voltage 1.9 V to 3.6 V interrupt signal for free-fall, motion detection and magnetic field detection. Power-down mode / low-power mode The magnetic and accelerometer blocks can be Programmable interrupt generators for free- enabled or put into power-down mode separately. fall, motion detection and magnetic field detection The LSM303C is available in a plastic land grid Embedded temperature sensor array package (LGA) and is guaranteed to operate over an extended temperature range Embedded FIFO from -40 C to +85 C.
