contains internal 2000 V ESD protection circuitry extra precaution must be taken by the user to protect the chip from ESD A charge of over 2000 volts can accumulate on the human body or associated test equipment A charge of this magnitude can alter the performance or cause failure of the chip When handling the accelerometer proper ESD precautions should be followed to avoid exposing the device to discharges which may be detrimental to its performance MMA7260Q 2 Sensors Freescale Semiconductor Table 2 Operating Characteristics Unless otherwise noted 20 C TA 85 C 2 2 V VDD 3 6 V Acceleration

RC filter consisting of a 1 0 k resistor and a 0 1 F capacitor to ground 2 These limits define the range of operation for which the part will meet specification 3 Within the supply range of 2 2 and 3 6 V the device operates as a fully calibrated linear accelerometer Beyond these supply limits the device may operate as a linear device but is not guaranteed to be in calibration 4 This value is measured with g Select in 1 5g mode 5 The device can measure both and acceleration With no input acceleration the output is at midsupply For positive acceleration the output will increase above VDD 2 For negative acceleration the output will decrease below VDD 2 6 The response time between 10 of full scale Vdd input voltage and 90 of the final operating output voltage 7 The response time between

MMA7260Q Sensors Freescale Semiconductor 3 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The Freescale accelerometer is a surface micromachined integrated circuit accelerometer The device consists of two surface micromachined capacitive sensing cells g cell and a signal conditioning ASIC contained in a single integrated circuit package The sensing elements are sealed hermetically at the wafer level using a bulk micromachined cap wafer The g cell is a mechanical structure formed from semiconductor materials polysilicon using semiconductor processes masking and etching It can be modeled as a set of beams attached to a movable central mass that move between fixed beams The movable beams can be deflected from their rest position by subjecting the system to an acceleration Figure 3 As the beams attached to the central mass move the distance from them to the fixed beams on one side will increase by the same amount that the distance to the fixed beams on the other side decreases The change in distance is a measure of acceleration The g cell beams form two back to back capacitors Figure 3 As the center beam moves with acceleration the distance between the beams changes and each capacitor s value will change C A D Where A is the area of the beam …
