Product Description
KMX62 is a 6 Degrees-of-Freedom inertial sensor system that features
16-bit digital outputs accessed through I2C communication. The KMX62
sensor consists of a tri-axial magnetometer plus a tri-axial accelerometer
coupled with an ASIC. It is packaged in a 3 x 3 x 0.9mm Land Grid Array
(LGA) package. The ASIC is realized in standard 0.18um CMOS
technology and features flexible user programmable ±2g/±4g/±8g/±16g
full scale range for the accelerometer. Accelerometer and Magnetometer
data can be accumulated in an internal 384 byte FIFO buffer and
transmitted to the application processor.
Acceleration sensing is based on the principle of a differential capacitance
arising from acceleration-induced motion of the sense element, which
utilizes common mode cancellation to decrease errors from process
variation, temperature, and environmental stress. Capacitance changes
are amplified and converted into digital signals which are processed by a dedicated digital signal
processing unit. The digital signal processor applies filtering, bias and sensitivity adjustment, as well
as temperature compensation.
Magnetic sensing is based on the principle of magnetic impedance. The magnetic sensor detects very
small magnetic fields by passing an electric pulse through a special electron spin aligned amorphous
wire. Due to the high Curie temperature of the wire, the sensor’s thermal performance shows excellent
stability.
Noise performance is excellent with bias stability over temperature. Bias errors resulting from
assembly can be trimmed digitally by the user. These sensors can accept supply voltages between
1.7V and 3.6V, and digital communication voltages between 1.2 and 3.6V.

Power-On Procedure
Proper functioning of power-on reset (POR) is dependent on the specific VDD, VDDLow, TVDD (rise
time), and TVdd_Off profile of individual applications. It is recommended to minimize VDDLow, and TVDD,
and maximize TVdd_Off. It is also advised that the VDD ramp up time TVdd be monotonic. To assure
proper POR in all environmental conditions the application should be evaluated over the range of VDD,
VDDLow, TVDD , TVdd_Off and temperature as POR performance can vary depending on these
parameters. In order to guarantee proper reset regardless of the VDDLow, TVDD (rise time), and TVdd_Off
parameters, a software reset can be issued via the I2C protocol. Please refer to Technical Note TN005
KMX62 Power-On Procedure to ensure proper POR function in your application.

Digital Interface
The Kionix KMX62 digital sensor has the ability to communicate on the I2C digital serial interface bus. This
flexibility allows for easy system integration by eliminating analog-to-digital converter requirements and by
providing direct communication with system processors. The I2C interface is compliant with high-speed mode,
fast mode and standard mode I2C protocols.
The serial interface terms and descriptions as indicated in Table 7 below will be observed throughout this
document.

Description
The device that transmits data to the bus.
The device that receives data from the bus.
The device that initiates a transfer, generates clock signals, and terminates a transfer.
The device addressed by the Master.
Table 7. Serial Interface Terminologies
I2C Serial Interface
As previously mentioned, the KMX62 has the ability to communicate on an I2C bus. I2C is primarily used for
synchronous serial communication between a Master device and one or more Slave devices. The system
Master provides the serial clock signal and addresses Slave devices on the bus. The KMX62 always operates
as a Slave device during standard Master-Slave I2C operation.
I2C is a two-wire serial interface that contains a Serial Clock (SCL) line and a Serial Data (SDA) line. SCL is a
serial clock that is provided by the Master, but can be held low by any Slave device, putting the Master into a
wait condition. SDA is a bi-directional line used to transmit and receive data to and from the interface. Data is
transmitted MSB (Most Significant Bit) first in 8-bit per byte format, and the number of bytes transmitted per
transfer is unlimited. The I2C bus is considered free when both lines are high.

Table 8. I2C Address
I2C Operation
Transactions on the I2C bus begin after the Master transmits a start condition (S), which is defined as a highto-low transition on the data line while the SCL line is held high. The bus is considered busy after this
condition. The next byte of data transmitted after the start condition contains the Slave Address (SAD) in the
seven MSBs (Most Significant Bits), and the LSB (Least Significant Bit) tells whether the Master will be
receiving data ‘1’ from the Slave or transmitting data ‘0’ to the Slave. When a Slave Address is sent, each
device on the bus compares the seven MSBs with its internally-stored address. If they match, the device
considers itself addressed by the Master. The KMX62’s Slave Address is comprised of two programmable

parts, which allows for connection of multiple KMX62's to the same I2C bus. The LSB is determined by the
assignment of ADDR to GND or IO_Vdd. Figure 3 and Table 8 above show how two KMX62's would be
implemented on an I2C bus.
It is mandatory that receiving devices acknowledge (ACK) each transaction. Therefore, the transmitter must
release the SDA line during this ACK pulse. The receiver then pulls the data line low so that it remains stable
low during the high period of the ACK clock pulse. A receiver that has been addressed, whether it is Master or
Slave, is obliged to generate an ACK after each byte of data has been received. To conclude a transaction,
the Master must transmit a stop condition (P) by transitioning the SDA line from low to high while SCL is high.
The I2C bus is now free. Note that if the KMX62 is accessed through I2C protocol before the startup is finished
a NACK signal is sent.
Writing to a KMX62 8-bit Register
Upon power up, the Master must write to the KMX62’s control registers to set its operational mode. Therefore,
when writing to a control register on the I2C bus, as shown Sequence 1 on the following page, the following
protocol must be observed: After a start condition, SAD+W transmission, and the KMX62 ACK has been
returned, an 8-bit Register Address (RA) command is transmitted by the Master. This command is telling the
KMX62 to which 8-bit register the Master will be writing the data. Since this is I2C mode, the MSB of the RA
command should always be zero (0). The KMX62 acknowledges the RA and the Master transmits the data to
be stored in the 8-bit register. The KMX62 acknowledges that it has received the data and the Master
transmits a stop condition (P) to end the data transfer. The data sent to the KMX62 is now stored in the
appropriate register. The KMX62 automatically increments the received RA commands and, therefore,
multiple bytes of data can be written to sequential registers after each Slave ACK as shown in Sequence 2 on
the following page.
Reading from a KMX62 8-bit Register
When reading data from a KMX62 8-bit register on the I2C bus, as shown in Sequence 3 on the next page, the
following protocol must be observed: The Master first transmits a start condition (S) and the appropriate Slave
Address (SAD) with the LSB set at ‘0’ to write. The KMX62 acknowledges and the Master transmits the 8-bit
RA of the register it wants to read. The KMX62 again acknowledges, and the Master transmits a repeated
start condition (Sr). After the repeated start condition, the Master addresses the KMX62 with a ‘1’ in the LSB
(SAD+R) to read from the previously selected register. The Slave then acknowledges and transmits the data
from the requested register. The Master does not acknowledge (NACK) it received the transmitted data, but
transmits a stop condition to end the data transfer. The KMX62 automatically increments through its
sequential registers, allowing data to be read from multiple registers following a single SAD+R command as
shown below in Sequence 4 on the following page. Reading data from a buffer read register is a special case
because if register address (RA) is set to buffer read register (BUF_READ) in Sequence 4, the register autoincrement feature is automatically disabled. Instead, the Read Pointer will increment to the next data in the
buffer, thus allowing reading multiple bytes of data from the buffer using a single SAD+R command.

HS-mode
To enter the 3.4MHz high speed mode of communication, the device must receive the following sequence of
conditions from the master: a Start condition followed by a Master code (00001XXX) and a Master Nonacknowledge. Once recognized, the device switches to HS-mode communication. Read/write data transfers
then proceed as described in the sequences above. Devices return to the FS-mode after a STOP occurrence

Initial Startup
The preferred startup sequence is to turn on IO_VDD before VDD, but if VDD is turned on first, the
component will not affect the bus communications (no latch-up or other problems during engine system level
wake-up).
Power On Reset (POR) is performed every time when:
1. IO_VDD supply is valid
2. VDD power supply is going to valid level
OR
1. IO_VDD power supply is going to valid level
2. VDD supply is valid

When POR occurs, the registers are loaded from OTP and the part is put into Stand-by mode.
Stand-by mode
The primary function of the stand-by mode is to ensure fast wake-up to active mode and to minimize current
consumption. This mode is set as default when both power supplies are applied and the POR function
occurs. A Soft Reset command also performs the POR function and puts the part into Stand-by mode.
Stand-by mode is a low power waiting state for fast turn on time. Bus communication actions of other
components are not disturbed if they are using the same bus. There is only one possible way to change to
active mode – a register command from the external application processor via the I2C bus.
Sleep mode
While in sleep mode, the accelerometer is periodically taking a measurement to detect if there is any motion.
Data in the accelerometer registers is being updated, however, there is no data ready interrupt being
reported. Also, no data is being sent to the buffer.
Low Power ( = 00 or 01) mode
Stand-by-mode can be changed to a Low Power mode by writing to register Control Register 2 or when a
motion wake up event occurs.
Low power mode engages the full functionality of accelerometer and/or magnetometer measurements in a
low power, low resolution mode. The host has the ability to change settings in the control register back to
Stand-by mode for either or both the accelerometer and magnetometer. If enabled, the back to sleep
function will put the part into the Sleep mode.
The host can also place the part into High Resolution ( = 10 or 11) mode by writing to Control
Register 2.
High Resolution ( = 10 or 11) mode
Stand-by-mode can be changed to High Resolution mode by writing to register Control Register 2.
High Resolution mode engages the full functionality of accelerometer and/or magnetometer measurements
in a higher power, higher resolution mode. The host has the ability to change settings in the control register
back to Stand-by mode for either or both the accelerometer and magnetometer. If enabled, the back to
sleep function will put the part into the Sleep mode.
The host can also place the part into Low Power ( = 00 or 01) mode by writing to Control Register 2.

blank = Register is a write only register or sensor output
Wrt describes how the ASIC will behave if the register is written while enabled. This is important
because if modes of operation are change while the state machine is running the digital portion
of the ASIC can enter undefined states and cause unexpected results.
blank = This register cannot be written to.
OTF = On The Fly registers can be written while the ASIC is enabled and the change will be
accepted with no interruption in the operation although there will be a settling time for some
changes.
RST = Restart indicates that if this register is written to while any sensors are enabled the ASIC
will automatically disable for a brief time and then re-enable the sensors that were previously
enabled. Interrupt and buffer status registers will be cleared (01h, 02h, 03h, 7Bh, 7Ch, 7Dh)
NRST = No Restart indicates that if this register is written to while any sensors are enabled the
ASIC will NOT automatically disable/enable. Changes apply to the block being controlled for
quick sweeps but the operation of the digital engine may not be correct and the DUT must be
disabled/enabled for complete functionality.

INL - Interrupt Latch Release
Latched interrupt source information (at INS1 and INS2) is cleared and physical interrupt latched pin is
changed to its inactive state when this register is read. If an engine is configured as an unlatched
interrupt and the current state is indicating and interrupt this release will not clear the interrupt.

These registers contain up to 16-bits of valid acceleration data for each axis. The data is updated every
user-defined ODR period, is protected from overwrite during each read, and can be converted from
digital counts to acceleration (g) per Figure 4 below. The register acceleration output binary data is
represented in N-bit 2’s complement format. For example, if N = 16 bits, then the Counts range is from
-32768 to 32767.

Sample Buffer Feature Description
The sample buffer feature of the ASIC_AO accumulates and outputs data based on how it is configured.
There are 4 buffer modes available. Data is collected at the highest ODR specified by OSA[3:0] and OSM[3:0]
in the ODCNTL (Output Data Control) Register. Each buffer mode accumulates data, reports data, and
interacts with status indicators in a slightly different way.
FIFO Mode
Data Accumulation
Sample collection stops when the buffer is full.
Data Reporting
Data is reported with the oldest byte of the oldest sample first (X_L or X based
on resolution).
Status Indicators
A watermark interrupt occurs when the number of samples in the buffer reaches
the Sample Threshold. The watermark interrupt stays active until the buffer
contains less than this number of samples. This can be accomplished through
clearing the buffer or reading greater than SMPX.
SMPX = SMP_LEV[8:0] – SMP_TH[8:0]
Equation 1: Samples Above Sample Threshold
Stream Mode
Data Accumulation
Sample collection continues when the buffer is full; older data is discarded to
make room for newer data.
Data Reporting
Data is reported with the oldest sample first (uses FIFO read pointer).
Status Indicators
A watermark interrupt occurs when the number of samples in the buffer reaches
the Sample Threshold. The watermark interrupt stays active until the buffer
contains less than this number of samples. This can be accomplished through
clearing the buffer or explicitly reading greater than SMPX samples (calculated
with Equation 1).

Trigger Mode
Data Accumulation
When a physical interrupt is caused by one of the digital engines or when a logic
high signal occurs on the TRIG pin, the trigger event is asserted and
SMP_TH[8:0] samples prior to the event are retained. Sample collection
continues until the buffer is full.
Data Reporting
Data is reported with the oldest sample first (uses FIFO read pointer).
Status Indicators
When a physical interrupt occurs and there are at least SMP_TH[8:0] samples in
the buffer, BUF_TRIG in BUF_STATUS_REG2 is asserted.
FILO Mode
Data Accumulation
Sample collection continues when the buffer is full; older data is discarded to
make room for newer data.
Data Reporting
Data is reported with the newest byte of the newest sample first (Z_H or Z based
on resolution).
Status Indicators
A watermark interrupt occurs when the number of samples in the buffer reaches
the Sample Threshold. The watermark interrupt stays active until the buffer
contains less than this number of samples. This can be accomplished through
clearing the buffer or explicitly reading greater than SMPX samples (calculated
with Equation 1).
Buffer Operation
The following diagrams illustrate the operation of the buffer conceptually. Actual physical
implementation has been abstracted to offer a simplified explanation of how the different buffer
modes operate. Regardless of the selected mode, the buffer fills sequentially, two-byte at a
time and one set_count number of bytes at the highest ODR. Figure 7 shows one 14-byte data
sample with all devices (accelerometer, temp sensor and magnetometer) enabled. Note the
location of the FILO read pointer versus that of the FIFO read pointer. Figure 8 shows one 12byte data sample with accelerometer and magnetometer enabled and temperature sensor
disabled. Figure 8 - Figure 17 represent a 10-sample version of the buffer (for simplicity), with
Sample Threshold set to 8.
Note: When the BUF_CLEAR command is asserted, the buffer read pointer is moved to the
location of the buffer write pointer.
