ST has created  three-axis linear accelerometer for “non-safety”, it said, automotive applications including anti-theft, telematics, infotainment, tilt measurement, inclination measurement and vehicle navigation. Called AIS2IH, it has user-selectable full-scales covering ±2, 4, 8 and 16g (survivable shock is 10,000g), and output data rates between 1.6Hz and 1.6kHz. There are five modes all-told, one nominally high-performance and ...
