GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MC3635 is an ultra-low power, low-
noise, integrated digital output 3-axis
accelerometer with a feature set optimized
for wearables and consumer product
motion sensing. Applications include
wearable consumer products, IoT devices,
user interface control, gaming motion input,
electronic compass tilt compensation for
cell phones, game controllers, remote
controls and portable media products.
Low noise and low power are inherent in
the monolithic fabrication approach, where
the MEMS accelerometer is integrated in a
single-chip with the electronics integrated
circuit.
In the MC3635 the internal sample rate can
be set from 14 to 1300 samples / second.
Specific tap or sample acquisition
conditions can trigger an interrupt to a
remote MCU. Alternatively, the device
supports the reading of sample and event
status via polling.
