Trivial question about accelerometer

Hi everybody,

For LIS244AL accelerometer, I need to understand what does mean:

sensitivity: 0.140*Vdd (V/g)

So I need to understand what is the output voltage when the device is inclined by 1Â°.

BTW, in which application should I use an accelerometer and in which one should I use a

gyroscope.

Herzlich,

Hi Erzlich

For specific support about MEMS products, my suggest is to submit the question in the ''ONLINE SUPPORT'' area, available in every Product Folder Web Page.

For LIS244AL the link is:
