BMA180-SHUTL

BMA180 Digital, triaxial acceleration sensor Bosch Sensortec General description The BMA180 is an ultra high performance digital The BMA180 is highly configurable in order to give the triaxial acceleration sensor, aiming for low power designer full flexibility when integrating the sensor consumer market applications. into his system. All features can be set by software via the digital interface. Here the user can choose The BMA180 allows high accurate measurement of between an I²C and an SPI (4-wire) interface mode. accelerations in 3 perpendicular axes and thus senses tilt, motion, shock and vibration in cell phones, handhelds, computer peripherals, man-machine interfaces, virtual reality features and game controllers.

Various motion detection scenarios can be identified by the BMA180 and signaled to the system via a simple interrupt pin. By using the digital serial interface, the exact details of the motion event that triggered the interrupt can be read-out. Following motion detection use case scenarios are supported by the interrupt engine: DNC 1 VDD 2 VSS 3 INT 4 CSB 5 ff Any-motion (slope) detection ff Tap sensing 12 11 DNC 10 VDDIO BMA180 (top view) 6 9 SDI 8 SDO 7 SCK DNC ff Low-g / high-g detection ff Data-ready with sample skipping option ff Self-wake-up Pin Name Function The interrupts can be conveniently configured by the No. user and thus perfectly support the integration of the 1 DNC Do not connect BMA180 into the user’s system environment. 2 VDD Analog supply voltage 3 VSS Ground Another important feature of the BMA180 acceleration 4 INT Interrupt output sensor is the power management module. This module 5 CSB SPI chip select 6 DNC Do not connect 7 SCK Serial clock 8 SDO Serial data output 9 SDI Serial data in /out 10 VDDIO Digital interface power supply 11 DNC Do not connect 12 DNC Do not connect allows for optimizing the sensor’s power consumption in-line with the specific user requirements. Thus, it is not necessary to operate the sensor at full power for all application scenarios all the time. For some use cases the power consumption drastically shrinks to just a fraction of what would be required in full performance mode. Moreover this feature of the BMA180 allows for an intelligent system power management   and thus significant reduction of the whole system’s power consumption. In particular, this helps increasing battery life-time of any kind of mobile device.
