DESCRIPTION
The LIS2L02AQ is a dual-axis linear accelerometer
that includes a sensing element and an IC interface
able to take the information from the sensing el ement
and to provide an analog signal to the exter nal wor ld.
The sensing element, capable to detect the acceleration, is manufactured using a dedicated process
called THELMA (Thick Epi-Poly Layer for Microactuators and Accelerometers) developed by ST to produce inertial sensors and actuators in silicon.
The IC interface instead is manufactured using a
CMOS process that allow s high l evel o f integration to
design a dedicated circuit which is trimmed to better
match the sensing element characteristics.
The LIS2L02AQ has a user selectable full scale of
2g, 6g and it is capable of measuring accelerations

ORDERING NUMBER: LIS2L02AQ
over a maximum bandwidth of 4.0 K Hz for both the X
and Y axis. The device bandwidth m ay be r educed by
using external capacitances. A self-test capability allows the user to check the functioning of the system.
The LIS2L02AQ is available in plastic SMD package
and it is specified over a temperature range extending from -40°C to +85°C.
The LIS2L02AQ belongs to a family of products suitable for a variety of applications:
– Antitheft systems
– Inertial navigation
– Virtual reality input devices
– Vibration Monitoring, recording and com pen-
sation
– Appliance control
– Robotics
