About SCL3300-D01 Inclinometer

SCL3300-D01 measures acceleration across three axes and converts the gravity vector into inclination information over a ±90-degree range. Four selectable operating modes let designers tune bandwidth, noise and response for static levelling or more dynamic motion measurement.

Ultra-low noise density reaching approximately 0.001 degrees per square-root hertz supports precision machine alignment and structural monitoring. The sensor communicates through SPI from a 3.0–3.6-volt supply and includes mechanical overdamping for demanding industrial environments. Applications include robotics, construction equipment, machine control and inertial-measurement assemblies.
