Pmod ACL: 3-axis Accelerometer

Product information "Pmod ACL: 3-axis Accelerometer"

Flexible peripheral modules for all your designs

Pmod™ devices are Digilent’s line of small I/O interface boards that offer an ideal way to extend the capabilities of programmable logic and embedded control boards. They allow sensitive signal conditioning circuits and high-power drive circuits to be placed where they are most effective - near sensors and actuators.

Pmod modules communicate with system boards using 6, 8, or 12-pin connectors that can carry multiple digital control signals, including SPI and other serial protocols. Pmod modules allow for more effective designs by routing analog signals and power supplies only where they are needed, and away from digital controller boards.

Overview Pmod ACL

The Pmod ACL is a 3-axis digital accelerometer module that provides input to a system board. Communication via SPI or I2C with the on-board Analog Devices ADXL345 allows the user to access up to 13 bits of acceleration data, indicating the Pmod's angle of orientation.
