The ADXL345 is a compact, low-power, high-resolution 3-axis digital accelerometer sensor capable of measuring acceleration in the X, Y, and Z axes. Developed by Analog Devices, this sensor provides precise motion sensing and tilt detection, making it ideal for robotics, wearable electronics, motion monitoring, vibration analysis, and embedded system applications.
The ADXL345 supports both I2C and SPI communication interfaces, allowing seamless integration with Arduino, ESP32, STM32, Raspberry Pi Pico, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms. With selectable measurement ranges up to ±16g and 13-bit resolution, the sensor can accurately detect static acceleration due to gravity as well as dynamic motion resulting from movement, vibration, or shock.
Its low power consumption and compact size make it a popular choice for battery-powered devices, IoT projects, drones, and portable electronics.
