Freescale Semiconductor
   

Low g
Smart Motion with Power
Freescale's power-select and g-select low-g acceleration sensors are designed to detect on one, two or three axes, allowing your end application the freedom of movement detection it needs. In addition, for multifunctional applications, these devices allow you to select between 1.5g to 12g levels of acceleration. Our product portfolio includes both digital and analog (I2C/SPI) products. These devices have a fast response time, low current consumption, low voltage operation and a standby mode all in a small profile package to detect fall, tilt, motion, positioning, shock or vibration.
