Overview


The PmodACL2 is a 3-axis digital
accelerometer module powered by the Analog
Devices ADXL362.

Features include:

user-selectable resolution

single or double-tap detection

activity and inactivity monitoring

free fall detection

SPI Communication

Functional Description


The PmodACL2 uses a standard 12-pin
connector and can communicate via SPI.
While the ADXL362 is in Measurement Mode,
it continuously measures and stores
acceleration data in the X-data, Y-data, and Z-
data registers.

Do not exceed 3.3V on the VCC power supply.
Exceeding this limit could permanently damage
the ADXL362.

Interface

All communications with the device must
specify a register address and a flag that
indicate whether the communication is a read
or a write. Actual data transfer always follows
the register address and communication flag.

Perform device configuration by writing to the
control registers within the accelerometer.
Access accelerometer data by reading the
device registers.

You may find a full list of registers, their
functionality, and communication specifications
in the ADXL362 datasheet available at:

www.analog.com

.

Table 1. Interface Connector Signal

Description


The SPI standard uses four signal lines. These
are slave select (~SS), master out slave in
(MOSI), master in slave out (MISO), and serial
clock (SCLK). These four signal lines map to
the following signals on the ADXL345: ~SS
corresponds to the chip select signal

(~CS),

MOSI corresponds to serial data input (SDI),
MISO corresponds to serial data output (SDO),
and SCK corresponds to the serial clock
(SCLK). (See Table 1 for signal descriptions.)
