Single-axis ±100g digital accelerometer for high-shock sensing
The NXP MMA8210TEGR2 is a single-axis X-axis digital accelerometer with a ±100g measurement range, designed to capture high-shock events such as crash impacts, tool drops, or industrial machinery vibration.
Temperature range and package for harsh environments
Housed in a 16-SOIC wide-body package (0.295" body width, 7.50mm), it uses a standard surface-mount footprint that reflows on a typical lead-free profile without special handling.
Sensitivity and output scaling
The analog sensitivity is 4.01 mV/g, and the digital sensitivity is 4.098 LSB/g at the ±100g full-scale setting, giving a resolution of roughly 0.24g per LSB. This scaling means the sensor outputs a near-linear digital count proportional to acceleration, which the host reads over the DSI bus and converts to g-force with a simple multiply.
It is ROHS3 compliant, meeting the latest restriction-of-hazardous-substances directive for global shipping.
