Murata introduces the Murata Electronics tilt sensor

     The Murata Electronics SCL3300 3-axis MEMs tilt sensor features a tilt Angle output and a digital SPI interface. The inclinometer has four user-selectable measurement modes that can be used to optimize the sensor's performance for different applications and their requirements. The device is designed for applications such as leveling, tilt sensing, machine control, and structural health monitoring.

The device is designed for applications such as leveling, tilt sensing, machine control, and structural health monitoring.

     The inclinometer provides a ±90° inclination output and operates in a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, with a typical temperature drift of less than ±10mg over the entire operating temperature range. The noise density is as low as 0.001°/√Hz, and 3.3V single power supply is used. The sleep mode with a typical power consumption of 3μA can be battery-powered. Since it has a digital interface, an external analog-to-digital converter is not required. It comes in a 12-pin pre-formed 8.6mm x 7.6mm x 3.3mm plastic housing suitable for SMD mounting. The Murata SCL3300-D01 complies with the RoHS and ELV directives.
