Dual-axis accelerometer claims big
savings
Memsic is now offering an accelerometer with sensitivity compensation over temperature that is pin compatible with Analog Devices' 14-lead CERPAK.
Memsic is now offering an accelerometer with sensitivity compensation over temperature that is pin compatible with Analog Devices' 14-lead CERPAK (ADXL202JQC/AQC), cutting costs up to 50% and shortening lead times A dual-axis accelerometer fabricated on a standard, submicron CMOS process, Memsic's pin-for-pin compatible accelerometer provides shock survivability of 50,000g - significantly lowering failure rates in the field- and eliminates stiction issues because it has no moving parts

Low noise floor aids accelerometer tilt resolution
An ultra-low-noise device is the latest in the successful line of standard submicron CMOS accelerometers from Memsic.
In addition, the new accelerometer has a tighter initial offset, a tighter initial sensitivity error, and is factory programmable at the end of the manufacturing cycle, cutting costs to as much as 50% less than competitors.
Memsic's leading-edge accelerometer technology successfully integrates MEMS technology with leading-edge IC processes to create MEMS ICs, and is applicable to virtually any application that requires the sensing of motion, acceleration, or tilt.
In particular, the pin-for-pin compatible product is well suited for lower volume applications - such as car alarms, pedometers, and smart pens - across a number of different markets.
