Mikroe MIKROE-1942 Shake2Wake click

Mikroe MIKROE-1942 Shake2Wake click features the Analog Devices ADXL362 ultralow power, 3-axis MEMS accelerometer from Analog Devices. The ADXL362 incorporates several activity detection modes. The interrupt pins from the chip are connected to an onboard ADP195 power switch IC. This, in turn, controls an external device connected to a screw terminal.

The detection threshold is configurable (both intensity and duration). The duration of inactivity that leads to switching off is also programmable. Shake2Wake click can also be used as a regular accelerometer, for continuous sensing, in which case it communicates with the target MCU through mikroBUS™ SPI interface. The MIKROE-1942 uses a 3.3V power supply only.
