Industrial accelerometer

8 October 2014 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

Freescale Semiconductor’s celebration of the recent shipment of its two-billionth sensor coincided with the launch of a new, high-bandwidth, 3-axis analog accelerometer engineered to detect ultra-high frequency motion and vibration in industrial motors and equipment.

Designed to capture acceleration information often missed by less accurate sensors commonly deployed in consumer products such as smartphones and exercise activity monitors, the FXLN83xxQ enables intelligent algorithms to better perform fault prognostication for predictive maintenance and condition monitoring applications.

Housed in a compact 3 x 3 mm package, the chip features bandwidth of 2,7 kHz and is one of the first 3-axis devices to feature an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. With an analog output, it is universally compatible across a wide range of ADC-enabled microcontrollers.

In addition, the FXLN83xxQ features low power consumption for battery-operated applications, exposed leads for rapid solder joint inspection, and 10 years guaranteed product availability via Freescale’s product longevity program. Other technical features include a 1,71 V to 3,6 V supply range and selectable ±2 G to 16 G measurement levels.
