16 / 42 page  Functionality LIS331DL 16/42 3 Functionality The LIS331DL is a nano, low-power, digital output 3-axis linear accelerometer packaged in an LGA package. The complete device includes a sensing element and an IC interface able to take the information from the sensing element and to provide a signal to the external world through an I2C/SPI serial interface. 3.1 Sensing element A proprietary process is used to create a surface micro-machined accelerometer. The technology allows to carry out suspended silicon structures which are attached to the substrate in a few points called anchors and are free to move in the direction of the sensed acceleration. To be compatible with the traditional packaging techniques a cap is placed on top of the sensing element to avoid blocking the moving parts during the moulding phase of the plastic encapsulation. When an acceleration is applied to the sensor the proof mass displaces from its nominal position, causing an imbalance in the capacitive half-bridge. This imbalance is measured using charge integration in response to a voltage pulse applied to the capacitor. At steady state the nominal value of the capacitors are few pF and when an acceleration is applied the maximum variation of the capacitive load is in the fF range. 3.2 IC interface The complete measurement chain is composed by a low-noise capacitive amplifier which converts the capacitive unbalancing of the MEMS sensor into an analog voltage that is finally available to the user by an analog-to-digital converter. The acceleration data may be accessed through an I2C/SPI interface thus making the device particularly suitable for direct interfacing with a microcontroller. The LIS331DL features a Data-Ready signal (RDY) which indicates when a new set of measured acceleration data is available thus simplifying data synchronization in the digital system that uses the device. The LIS331DL may also be configured to generate an inertial Wake-Up and Free-Fall interrupt signal accordingly to a programmed acceleration event along the enabled axes. Both Free-Fall and Wake-Up can be available simultaneously on two different pins. 3.3 Factory calibration The IC interface is factory calibrated for sensitivity (So) and Zero-g level (TyOff). The trimming values are stored inside the device in a non volatile memory. Any time the device is turned on, the trimming parameters are downloaded into the registers to be used during the normal operation. This allows to use the device without further calibration. |
