Kionix tri-axis accelerometers offer large g-ranges

Two versions are available, the KX220-1071/2 accelerometers which provide +/-20g and +/-40g ranges respectively.

Maximum supported bandwidths range from 4.5kHz to 8kHz.

Both sensors have built-in self-test functions, consume only 0.25mA at 3.3V and are delivered in 10-pin 3mm x 3mm LGA packages.

The devices are intended for industrial sensor applications such as vibration monitoring to shock and impact detection, where the g-range and bandwidth requirements are typically higher than those in hand held consumer devices.
