Acceleration sensor: BMA530
Smallest size. Integrated feature set. Highly flexible.
BMA530
Accelerometer with advanced feature set
Stylish and minimalistic wearables offer little space for powerful components. The next-generation accelerometer with an advanced feature set is world’s smallest acceleration sensor (1.2 x 0.8 x 0.55 mm³). It is especially designed for compact devices such as wearables and toys requiring less sensor size, especially lower height. BMA530 includes integrated functionalities like step-counter and generic interrupts for easy use.
