Supply voltage on any pin should never exceed 6.0 V. This is a mechanical shock sensitive device, improper handling can cause permanent damages to the part. This is an ESD sensitive device, improper handling can cause permanent damages to the part. 14/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Mechanical and electrical specifications** ## **2.5 Terminology** ## **2.5.1** ## **Sensitivity** Sensitivity describes the gain of the sensor and can be determined e.g. by applying 1 _g_ acceleration to it. As the sensor can measure DC accelerations this can be done easily by pointing the axis of interest towards the center of the earth, noting the output value, rotating the sensor by 180 degrees (point to the sky) and noting the output value again. By doing so, ±1 _g_ acceleration is applied to the sensor. Subtracting the larger output value from the smaller one, and dividing the result by 2, leads to the actual sensitivity of the sensor. This value changes very little over temperature and also very little over time. The Sensitivity tolerance describes the range of sensitivities of a large population of sensors. ## **2.5.2 Zero-g level** Zero- _g_ level offset (Off) describes the deviation of an actual output signal from the ideal output signal if there is no acceleration present. A sensor in a steady state on a horizontal surface will measure 0 _g_ in X axis and 0 g in Y axis whereas the Z axis will measure 1 _g_ . The output is ideally in the middle of the dynamic range of the sensor (content of OUT registers 00h, 00h with 16 bit representation, data expressed as 2’s complement number). A deviation from ideal value in this case is called Zero- _g_ offset. Offset is to some extent a result of stress to a precise MEMS sensor and therefore the offset can slightly change after mounting the sensor onto a printed circuit board or exposing it to extensive mechanical stress. Offset changes little over temperature, see “Zero- _g_ level change vs. temperature”. The Zero- _g_ level of an individual sensor is stable over lifetime. The Zero- _g_ level tolerance describes the range of Zero- _g_ levels of a population of sensors. ## **2.5.3 Self test** Self test allows to test the mechanical and electric part of the sensor, allowing the seismic mass to be moved by means of an electrostatic test-force. The self-test function is off when the self-test bit of CTRL_REG1 (control register 1) is programmed to ‘0‘. When the self-test bit of CTRL_REG1 is programmed to ‘1‘an actuation force is applied to the sensor, simulating a definite input acceleration. In this case the sensor outputs will exhibit a change in their DC levels which is related to the selected full scale and depending on the Supply Voltage through the device sensitivity. When Self Test is activated, the device output level is given by the algebraic sum of the signals produced by the acceleration acting on the sensor and by the electrostatic test-force. If the output signals change within the amplitude specified inside _Table 3_ or _4_ then the sensor is working properly and the parameters of the interface chip are within the defined specification. 15/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Functionality** ## **3 Functionality** The AIS326DQ is a high performance, low-power, digital output 3-axes linear accelerometer packaged in a QFN package. The complete device includes a sensing element and an IC interface able to take the information from the sensing element and to provide a signal to the external world through an SPI serial interface. ## **3.1 Sensing element** A proprietary process is used to create a surface micro-machined accelerometer. The technology allows to carry out suspended silicon structures which are attached to the substrate in a few points called anchors and are free to move in the direction of the sensed acceleration. To be compatible with the traditional packaging techniques a cap is placed on top of the sensing element to avoid blocking the moving parts during the moulding phase of the plastic encapsulation. When an acceleration is applied to the sensor the proof mass displaces from its nominal position, causing an imbalance in the capacitive half-bridge. This imbalance is measured using charge integration in response to a voltage pulse applied to the sense capacitor. At steady state the nominal value of the capacitors are few pF and when an acceleration is applied the maximum variation of the capacitive load is up to 100 pF. ## **3.2 IC interface** The complete measurement chain is composed by a low-noise capacitive amplifier which converts into an analog voltage the capacitive unbalancing of the MEMS sensor and by three Σ∆ analog-to-digital converters, one for each axis, that translate the produced signal into a digital bitstream. The Σ∆ converters are coupled with dedicated reconstruction filters which remove the high frequency components of the quantization noise and provide low rate and high resolution digital words. The charge amplifier and the Σ∆ converters are operated respectively at 61.5 kHz and 20.5 kHz. The data rate at the output of the reconstruction depends on the user selected decimation factor (DF) and spans from 40 Hz to 2560 Hz. The acceleration data may be accessed through an SPI interface thus making the device particularly suitable for direct interfacing with a microcontroller. The AIS326DQ features a data-ready signal (RDY) which indicates when a new set of measured acceleration data is available thus simplifying data synchronization in digital system employing the device itself. The AIS326DQ may also be configured to generate an inertial wake-up, direction detection and free-fall interrupt signal accordingly to a programmed acceleration event along the enabled axes. 16/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Functionality** ## **3.3 Factory calibration** The IC interface is factory calibrated for sensitivity (So) and Zero- _g_ level (Off). The trimming values are stored inside the device by a non volatile structure. Any time the device is turned on, the trimming parameters are downloaded into the registers to be employed during the normal operation. This allows the user to employ the device without further calibration. 17/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Application hints** ## **4 Application hints** **Figure 4.

Power supply decoupling capacitors (100 nF ceramic, 10 µF Al) should be placed as near as possible to the pin 3 of the device (common design practice). All the voltage and ground supplies must be present at the same time to have proper behavior of the IC (refer to _Figure 4_ ). It is possible to remove Vdd maintaining Vdd_IO without blocking the communication busses. In this condition the measurement chain is powered off. The functionality of the device and the measured acceleration data is selectable and accessible through the SPI interface. The design of the application board should take in consideration that the AIS326DQ is equipped also with an I2C compatible interface that it is activated when the signal on CS pin is high (logic:1). The functions, the thresholds and the timing of the interrupt pin (INT) can be completely programmed by the user through the SPI interface. 18/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Digital interface** ## **5 Digital interface** The registers embedded inside the AIS326DQ may be accessed through SPI serial interface. The latter may be SW configured to operate either in 3-wire or 4-wire interface mode. **Table 7.

For I[2] C operation refer to LIS3LV02DQ datasheet or contact ST technical support. ## **5.1 SPI bus interface** The AIS326DQ SPI is a bus slave. The SPI allows to write and read the registers of the device. The serial interface interacts with the outside world with 4 wires: **CS** , **SPC** , **SDI** and **SDO** . ## **Figure 5.

It goes low at the start of the transmission and goes back high at the end. **SPC** is the Serial Port Clock and it is controlled by the SPI master. It is stopped high when **CS** is high (no transmission). **SDI** and **SDO** are respectively the serial port data input and output. Those lines are driven at the falling edge of **SPC** and should be captured at the rising edge of **SPC** . Both the read register and write register commands are completed in 16 clock pulses or in multiple of 8 in case of multiple byte read/write. Bit duration is the time between two falling edges of **SPC** . The first bit (bit 0) starts at the first falling edge of **SPC** after the falling edge 19/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Digital interface** of **CS** while the last bit (bit 15, bit 23, ...) starts at the last falling edge of SPC just before the rising edge of **CS** . _**bit 0**_ : RW bit.

In multiple read/write commands further blocks of 8 clock periods will be added. When MS bit is 0 the address used to read/write data remains the same for every block. When MS bit is ‘1’ the address used to read/write data is increased at every block. The function and the behavior of **SDI** and **SDO** remain unchanged. ## **5.1.1 SPI Read** ## **Figure 6.

The device is in powerdown mode when PD1, PD0= “00” (default value after boot). The device is in normal mode when either PD1 or PD0 is set to 1. **DF1, DF0** bit allows to select the data rate at which acceleration samples are produced. The default value is “00” which corresponds to a data-rate of 40 Hz. By changing the content of DF1, DF0 to “01”, “10” and “11” the selected data-rate will be set respectively equal to 160 Hz, 640 Hz and to 2560 Hz. **ST** bit is used to activate the self test function. When the bit is set to one, an output change will occur to the device outputs (refer to table 2 and 3 for specification) thus allowing to check the functionality of the whole measurement chain. **Zen** bit enables the Z-axis measurement channel when set to 1. The default value is 1. **Yen** bit enables the Y-axis measurement channel when set to 1. The default value is 1. **Xen** bit enables the X-axis measurement channel when set to 1.

CTRL_REG2 register description** |FS|Full scale selection<br>(0: ±2_g_; 1: ±6_g_)| |---|---| |BDU|Block data update<br>(0: continuous update; 1: output registers not updated between MSB and LSB<br>reading)| |BLE|Big/little endian selection<br>(0: little endian; 1: big endian)| |BOOT|Reboot memory content| |IEN|Interrupt ENable<br>(0: data ready on RDY pad; 1: interrupt events on RDY pad)| |DRDY|Enable data-ready generation| |SIM|SPI serial interface mode selection<br>(0: 4-wire interface; 1: 3-wire interface)| |DAS|Data alignment selection<br>(0: 12 bit right justified; 1: 16 bit left justified)| **FS** bit is used to select full scale value. After the device power-up the default full scale value is +/-2 _g_ . In order to obtain a +/-6 _g_ full scale it is necessary to set FS bit to ‘1’. **BDU** bit is used to inhibit output registers update between the reading of upper and lower register parts. In default mode (BDU = ‘0’) the lower and upper register parts are updated continuously. If it is not sure to read faster than output data rate, it is recommended to set BDU bit to ‘1’. In this way, after the reading of the lower (upper) register part, the content of that output registers is not updated until the upper (lower) part is read too. This feature avoids reading LSB and MSB related to different samples. **BLE** bit is used to select Big Endian or Little Endian representation for output registers. In Big Endian’s one MSB acceleration value is located at addresses 28h (X-axis), 2Ah (Y-axis) and 2Ch (Z-axis) while LSB acceleration value is located at addresses 29h (X-axis), 2Bh (Yaxis) and 2Dh (Z-axis). In Little Endian representation (Default, BLE=‘0‘) the order is inverted (refer to data register description for more details). **BOOT** bit is used to refresh the content of internal registers stored in the flash memory block. At the device power up the content of the flash memory block is transferred to the internal registers related to trimming functions to permit a good behavior of the device itself. If for any reason the content of trimming registers was changed it is sufficient to use this bit to restore correct values. When BOOT bit is set to ‘1’ the content of internal flash is copied inside corresponding internal registers and it is used to calibrate the device. These values are factory trimmed and they are different for every accelerometer. They permit a good behavior of the device and normally they have not to be changed. At the end of the boot process the BOOT bit is set again to ‘0’. **IEN** bit is used to switch the value present on data-ready pad between Data-Ready signal and Interrupt signal. At power up the Data-ready signal is chosen. It is however necessary to modify DRDY bit to enable Data-Ready signal generation. 28/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Register description** **DRDY** bit is used to enable Data-Ready (RDY/INT) pin activation. If DRDY bit is ‘0’ (default value) on Data-Ready pad a ‘0’ value is present. If a Data-Ready signal is desired it is necessary to set to ‘1’ DRDY bit. Data-Ready signal goes to ‘1’ whenever a new data is available for all the enabled axis. For example if Z-axis is disabled, Data-Ready signal goes to ‘1’ when new values are available for both X and Y axis. Data-Ready signal comes back to ‘0’ when all the registers containing values of the enabled axis are read. To be sure not to loose any data coming from the accelerometer data registers must be read before a new Data-Ready rising edge is generated. In this case Data-ready signal will have the same frequency of the data rate chosen. **SIM** bit selects the SPI Serial Interface Mode. When SIM is ‘0’ (default value) the 4-wire interface mode is selected. The data coming from the device are sent to SDO pad. In 3-wire interface mode output data are sent to SDA/SDI pad. **DAS** bit permits to decide between 12 bit right justified and 16 bit left justified representation of data coming from the device. The first case is the default case and the most significant bits are replaced by the bit representing the sign. ## **7.10 CTRL_REG3 (22h)** ## **Table 27.

It is qualified for soldering heat resistance according to JEDEC J-STD-020C, in MSL3 condition. Land pattern and soldering recommendations are also available at www.st.com/. ## **9.1 General guidelines about soldering surface mount accelerometer** As common PCB design and industrial practice when considering accelerometer soldering, there are always 3 elements to take into consideration: 1. PCB with its own conductive layers (i.e. copper) and other organic materials used for board protection and dielectric isolation. 2. ACCELEROMETER to be mounted on the board. Accelerometer senses acceleration, but it senses also the mechanical stress coming from the board. This stress is minimized with simple PCB design rules. 3. SOLDERING PASTE like SnAgCu. This soldering paste can be dispensed on the board with a screen printing method through a stencil. The pattern of the soldering paste on the PCB is given by the stencil mask itself. ## **9.2 PCB design guidelines** PCB land and solder masking general recommendations are shown in _Figure 45_ . Refer to _Figure 46_ for specific device size, land count and pitch. - It is recommended to open solder mask external to PCB land; - It is mandatory, for correct device functionality, that some clearance is ensured to be present between accelerometer thermal pad and PCB. In order to obtain this clearance it is recommended to open the PCB thermal pad solder mask; - The area below the sensor (on the same side of the board) must be defined as keepout area. It is strongly recommended not to place any structure in top metal layer underneath the sensor; - Traces connected to pads should be as much symmetric as possible. Symmetry and balance for pad connection will help component self alignment and will lead to a better control of solder paste reduction after reflow; - For better performances over temperature it is strongly recommended not to place large insertion components like buttons or shielding boxes at distance less than 2 mm from the sensor; - Central die pad and “Pin 1 Indicator” are physically connected to GND. Leave “Pin 1 Indicator” unconnected during soldering. 46/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Soldering information** ## **9.2.1 PCB design rules** ## **Figure 45.

The stencil and printed circuit assembly should be aligned to within 25 µm (1 mil) prior to application of the solder paste. 47/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **Soldering information** **AIS326DQ** ## **9.4 Process consideration** - In case of use of no self-cleaning solder paste it is mandatory proper washing of the board after soldering to eliminate any possible source of leakage between adjacent pads due to flux residues - The PCB soldering profile depends on the number, size and placement of components in the application board. It is not functional to define a specific soldering profile for the accelerometer only. Customer should use a time and temperature reflow profile that is derived from the PCB design and manufacturing experience. 48/51 Doc ID 14956 Rev 4 **AIS326DQ** **Package information** ## **10 Package information** In order to meet environmental requirements, ST offers these devices in different grades of ECOPACK[®] packages, depending on their level of environmental compliance.
