SCA620-EF8H1A SINGLE AXIS ACCELEROMETER WITH ANALOG INTERFACE
The SCA620 accelerometer consists of a silicon bulk micro machined sensing element chip and a signal conditioning ASIC. The chips are mounted on a pre-molded package and wire bonded to appropriate contacts. The sensing element and ASIC are protected with silicone gel and lid. The sensor has 8 SMD legs (Gull-wing type).
