We've expanded our accelerometer selection even more with this high-precision and inexpensive MMA8451 Triple-Axis Accelerometer w\/ 14-bit ADC\u003cstrong\u003e. \u003c\/strong\u003eYou can detect motion, tilt and basic orientation with a digital accelerometer - and the MMA8451 is a great accelerometer to start with. It has a wide usage range, from +-2g up to +-8g yet is easy to use with Arduino or another microcontroller\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MMA8451 is a miniature little accelerometer from Freescale, who are (by this point) masters at the accelerometer-design game. It's designed for use in phones, tablets, smartwatches, and more, but works just as well in your Arduino project. Of the MMA8451\/MMA8452\/MMA8453 family, the MMA8451 is the most precise with a built in 14-bit ADC. The accelerometer also has built-in tilt\/orientation detection so it can tell you whether your project is being held in landscape or portrait mode and whether it is tilted forward or back\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sensor communicates over I2C so you can share it with a bunch of other sensors on the same two I2C pins. There's an address selection pin so you can have accelerometers share an I2C bus. Please note this chip requires repeated-start I2C support (in case you are looking to port this to another processor)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo get you going fast, we spun up a breakout board for this little guy. Since it's a 3V sensor, we add a low-dropout 3.3V regulator and level-shifting circuitry on board. That means it's perfectly safe for use with 3V or 5V power and logic. It's fully assembled and tested. Comes with an 8-pin 0.1\" standard header in case you want to use it with a breadboard or perfboard.
