ADXL335 - 5V ready triple-axis accelerometer (+-3g analog out)

This updated triple-axis accelerometer features an on-board 3.3V regulator, making it ideal for interfacing with 5V microcontrollers like Arduino. The breakout board provides 3 analog outputs for X, Y, and Z axis measurements, all within a compact 0.75"x0.75" footprint. The ADXL335 accelerometer from Analog Devices is renowned for its high-quality MEMS technology.

• 3.3V Regulator: The VCC input supports up to 5V and is regulated to 3.3V with a dedicated output pin.
• Ratiometric Analog Outputs: Outputs are calibrated so that:
  • 0g is at 1.65V (half of 3.3V)
  • -3g is at 0V
  • 3g is at 3.3V
  • Full scaling between these values
• Fully Assembled and Tested: Ready to use right out of the box.
• Breadboard and Perfboard Compatibility: Comes with 8-pin 0.1" standard header.
• Mounting Holes: Includes two 2mm (0.08") holes for easy attachment to projects.
• Filter Capacitors: Includes 0.1uF capacitors for a 50 Hz bandwidth.
• Revised PCB Design: As of November 2022, the updated PCB includes a clearer silkscreen with Adafruit Pinguin branding.

Technical Specifications:

• Dimensions (without header):
  • Length: 19mm (0.75in)
  • Width: 19mm (0.75in)
  • Height: 3.14mm (0.12in)
• Weight: 1.27g (0.04oz)
