GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The MXD6125Q is a low noise, low profile, dual axis  
accelerometer fabricated on a standard CMOS process. It is  
a complete sensing system with on-chip mixed mode signal  
processing. The MXD6125Q measures acceleration with a  
full-scale range of ±1 g and a sensitivity of 12.5%/g @3V at  
25°C. It can measure both dynamic acceleration (e.g.,  
vibration) and static acceleration (e.g., gravity). The  
MXD6125Q design is based on heat convection and requires  
no solid proof mass. This eliminates stiction and particle  
issues normally found with capacitive based technology, and  
significantly lowers field failure rate and in-line loss due to  
handling during assembly.  
The MXD6125Q provides two ratiometric analog outputs.  
The maximum noise floor is 0.18 mg/ Hz allowing signals  
below 0.5 mg to be resolved at 1 Hz bandwidth and the 3dB  
rolloff of the device occurs at 8 Hz. The MXD6125Q is  
available in a hermetically sealed low profile LCC surface  
mount package measuring 5mm x 5mm x 1.55m.

The MEMSIC device is a complete dual-axis acceleration  
measurement system fabricated on a monolithic CMOS IC  
process. The device operation is based on heat transfer by  
natural convection and operates like other accelerometers  
having a proof mass. The proof mass in the MEMSIC  
sensor is a gas.

2.7V to 3.6 V  
A single heat source, centered in the silicon chip is  
suspended across a cavity. Equally spaced  
aluminum/polysilicon thermopiles (groups of  
thermocouples) are located equidistantly on all four sides of  
the heat source (dual axis). Under zero acceleration, a  
temperature gradient is symmetrical about the heat source,  
so that the temperature is the same at all four thermopiles,  
causing them to output the same voltage.

All parts are shipped in tape and reel packaging.  
Caution: ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device.  
Acceleration in any direction will disturb the temperature  
profile, due to free convection heat transfer, causing it to be  
asymmetrical. The temperature, and hence voltage output  
of the four thermopiles will then be different. The  
differential voltage at the thermopile outputs is directly  
proportional to the acceleration. There are two identical  
acceleration signal paths on the accelerometer, one to  
measure acceleration in the x-axis and one to measure  
acceleration in the y-axis. Please visit the MEMSIC  
website at www.memsic.com for a picture/graphic  
description of the free convection heat transfer principle.  
Note: The MEMSIC logo’s arrow indicates the -X sensing  
direction of the device. The +Y sensing direction is rotated 90°  
away from the +X direction following the right-hand rule. Small  
circle indicates pin one(1).  
DISCUSSION OF TILT APPLICATIONS AND  
RESOLUTION  
Tilt Applications: One of the most popular applications of  
the MEMSIC accelerometer product line is in  
tilt/inclination measurement. An accelerometer uses the  
force of gravity as an input to determine the inclination  
angle of an object.  
A MEMSIC accelerometer is most sensitive to changes in  
position, or tilt, when the accelerometer’s sensitive axis is  
perpendicular to the force of gravity, or parallel to the  
Earth’s surface. Similarly, when the accelerometer’s axis is  
parallel to the force of gravity (perpendicular to the Earth’s  
surface), it is least sensitive to changes in tilt.  
MEMSIC MXD6125Q

Table 1 and Figure 2 help illustrate the output changes in  
the X- and Y-axes as the unit is tilted from +90° to 0°.  
Notice that when one axis has a small change in output per  
degree of tilt (in mg), the second axis has a large change in  
output per degree of tilt. The complementary nature of  
these two signals permits low cost accurate tilt sensing to  
be achieved with the MEMSIC device (reference  
application note AN-00MX-007).  
DIGITAL INTERFACE  
The MXD6125Q is easily interfaced with low cost  
microcontrollers. For the digital output accelerometer, one  
digital input port is required to read one accelerometer  
output. For the analog output accelerometer, many low cost  
microcontrollers are available today that feature integrated  
A/D (analog to digital converters) with resolutions ranging  
from 8 to 12 bits.  
In many applications the microcontroller provides an  
effective approach for the temperature compensation of the  
sensitivity and the zero g offset. Specific code set, reference  
designs, and applications notes are available from the  
factory. The following parameters must be considered in a  
digital interface:  
Resolution: smallest detectable change in input acceleration  
Bandwidth: detectable accelerations in a given period of  
time  
Acquisition Time: the duration of the measurement of the  
acceleration signal

DUTY CYCLE DEFINITION  
X Output per deg. Y Output per deg.  
The MXD6125Q has two PWM duty cycle outputs (x,y).  
The acceleration is proportional to the ratio T1/T2. The  
zero g output is set to 50% duty cycle and the sensitivity  
scale factor is set to 12.5% duty cycle change per g. These  
nominal values are affected by the initial tolerance of the  
device including zero g offset error and sensitivity error.  
This device is offered from the factory programmed to  
either a 10ms period (100 Hz).

Pulse width  
Resolution: The accelerometer resolution is limited by  
noise. The output noise will vary with the measurement  
bandwidth. With the reduction of the bandwidth, by  
applying an external low pass filter, the output noise drops.  
Reduction of bandwidth will improve the signal to noise  
ratio and the resolution. The output noise scales directly  
with the square root of the measurement bandwidth. The  
maximum amplitude of the noise, its peak- to- peak value,  
approximately defines the worst case resolution of the  
measurement. With a simple RC low pass filter, the rms  
noise is calculated as follows:  
T2  
T1  
A (g)= (T1/T2 - 0.5)/12.5%  
0g = 50% Duty Cycle

DESIGN TRADE-OFFS  
Noise (mg rms) = Noise(mg/ Hz ) *  
(Bandwidth(Hz)*1.6)  
The noise level is one determinant of accelerometer  
resolution. The second relates to the measurement  
resolution of the counter when decoding the duty cycle  
output. The actual resolution of the acceleration signal is  
The peak-to-peak noise is approximately equal to 6.6 times  
the rms value (for an average uncertainty of 0.1%).

limited by the time resolution of the counting devices used  
to decode the duty cycle. The faster the counter clock, the  
higher the resolution of the duty cycle and the shorter the  
T2 period can be for a given resolution. Table 2 shows  
some of the trade-offs. It is important to note that this is the  
resolution due to the microprocessors’ counter. It is  
probable that the accelerometer’s noise floor may set the  
lower limit on the resolution.  
When the part does into power down mode, the total  
current will be smaller than 0.1uA at 3V.  
In normal operation mode, this pin should be  
connected to Ground.  
POWER SUPPLY NOISE REJECTION  
One capacitor is recommended for best rejection of power  
supply noise (reference Figure 5 below). The capacitor  
should be located as close as possible to the device supply  
pin (VDD). The capacitor lead length should be as short as  
possible, and surface mount capacitor is preferred. For  
typical applications, the capacitor can be ceramic 0.1 µF.

MXD6125Q PIN DESCRIPTIONS  
VDD – This is the supply input for the circuits and the  
sensor heater in the accelerometer. The DC voltage should  
be between 2.7 and 3.6 volts. Refer to the section on PCB  
layout and fabrication suggestions for guidance on external  
parts and connections recommended.  
COM– This is the ground pin for the accelerometer.  
PCB LAYOUT AND FABRICATION SUGGESTIONS  
TP– This pin should be connected to ground.  
Xout – This pin is the digital output of the X-axis  
acceleration sensor. It is factory programmable to 100Hz.  
The user should ensure the load impedance is sufficiently  
high as to not source/sink >100µA typical. While the  
sensitivity of this axis has been programmed at the factory  
to be the same as the sensitivity for the y-axis, the  
accelerometer can be programmed for non-equal sensitivities  
on the x- and y-axes. Contact the factory for additional  
information.  
1. Liberal use of ceramic bypass capacitors is  
recommended. It is best to solder a 0.1uF capacitor  
directly across VDD and COM pin.  
2. Robust low inductance ground wiring should be used.  
3. Care should be taken to ensure there is “thermal  
symmetry” on the PCB immediately surrounding the  
MEMSIC device and that there is no significant heat  
source nearby.  
4. A metal ground plane should be added directly beneath  
the MEMSIC device. The size of the plane should be  
similar to the MEMSIC device’s footprint and be as  
thick as possible.  
5. Vias can be added symmetrically around the ground  
plane. Vias increase thermal isolation of the device  
from the rest of the PCB.  
Yout This pin is the digital output of the Y-axis  
acceleration sensor. It is factory programmable to 100Hz.  
The user should ensure the load impedance is sufficiently  
high as to not source/sink >100µA typical. While the  
sensitivity of this axis has been programmed at the factory  
to be the same as the sensitivity for the x-axis, the  
accelerometer can be programmed for non-equal sensitivities  
on the x- and y-axes. Contact the factory for additional  
information.  
PD Pin1 is the power down control pin. Pull this pin  
HIGH will put the accelerometer into power down mode.
