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,
ą1 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.

Functionality AIS326DQ
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 Ł" analog-to-digital converters, one for each axis, that translate the produced signal
into a digital bitstream.
The Ł" 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 Ł" 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.

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.

Digital signal from/to signal controller. Signal s levels are defined by proper selection of Vdd_IO
The device core is supplied through Vdd line while the I/O pads are supplied through
Vdd_IO line. Power supply decoupling capacitors (100 nF ceramic, 10 F 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 functions, the thresholds and the timing of the interrupt pin (INT) can be completely
programmed by the user through the SPI interface.

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.

CS is the serial port enable and it is controlled by the SPI master. 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

rising edge of CS.
bit 0: RW bit. When 0, the data DI(7:0) is written into the device. When 1, the data DO(7:0)
from the device is read. In latter case, the chip will drive SDO at the start of bit 8.
bit 1: MS bit. When 0, the address will remain unchanged in multiple read/write commands.
When 1, the address will be auto increased in multiple read/write commands.
bit 2-7: address AD(5:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.

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.

PD1, PD0 bit allows to turn the device out of power-down mode. The device is in power-
down 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. The default value is 1.

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 (Y-
axis) 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.
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.

Soldering information AIS326DQ
9 Soldering information
The QFPN-28 package is compliant with the ECOPACK, RoHS and  Green standard.
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 keep-
out 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.

B = PCB land length = QFPN solder pad length + 0.1 mm
C = PCB land width = QFPN solder pad width + 0.1 mm
D = PCB thermal pad solder mask opening = QFPN thermal pad side + 0.2 mm
9.3 Stencil design and solder paste application
The thickness and the pattern of the soldering paste are important for the proper
accelerometer mounting process.
Stainless steel stencils are recommended for solder paste application
A stencil thickness of 125 - 150 m (5 - 6 mils) is recommended for screen printing
The final thickness of soldering paste should allow proper cleaning of flux residuals and
clearance between sensor package and PCB
Stencil aperture should have rectangular shape with dimension up to 25 m (1mil)
smaller than PCB land
The openings of the stencil for the signal pads should be between 50% and 80% of the
PCB pad area
Optionally, for better solder paste release, the aperture walls should be trapezoidal and
the corners rounded
The fine pitch of the IC leads requires accurate alignment of the stencil to the printed
circuit board. The stencil and printed circuit assembly should be aligned to within 25 m
(1 mil) prior to application of the solder paste.
45/49
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.
