Description: Replacement: None. We are no longer carrying this breakout board but check out our other accelerometer boards in the sensor category. This page is for reference only.
Breakout board for the dual axis ADXL322 accelerometer. Brings out the analog voltage levels from the X and Y axis to a standard .1" header. The ADXL322 can be powered from 2.4V-5.25V. The Self-Test pin can be used to verify sensor operation. The board comes fully assembled and tested with selected sensor and 0.1uF filtering capacitors.

There is a good tutorial on the Arduino Playground for this type of board. Was able to plug it into my Arduino and start seeing results. I wish all things in life were this easy.

At the time of this post it’s pointing to ADXL320.
Careful - even though these are 2-axis accelerometers, they come on a breakout board with a pinout for a third axis (Z).
If you work in a lab that stocks both the 2- and the 3-axis versions, mark the 2-axis ones with a Sharpie to avoid some irritating debugging…
