MMA845xQ Design Checklist and
Board
Mounting Guidelines
by:
Kimberly Tuck
Applications Engineer
1.0 Introduction
This document is intended to assist customers with the
design-in of the MMA845xQ 3-axis low-g consumer grade
accelerometers. This document points out the similarities of
the pinout for these devices with a recommended layout for
implementing one board compatible for all devices. Guidelines
for board mounting to a PCB are given with recommendations
for I
2
C communication and speeds.
