8.6. Handling instructions
Micromechanical sensors are designed to sense acceleration with high accuracy even at low
amplitudes and contain highly sensitive structures inside the sensor element. The MEMS sensor can
tolerate mechanical shocks up to several thousand g's. However, these limits might be exceeded in
conditions with extreme shock loads such as e.g. hammer blow on or next to the sensor, dropping of
the sensor onto hard surfaces etc.
We recommend to avoid g-forces beyond the specified limits during transport, handling and mounting
of the sensors in a defined and qualified installation process.
This device has built-in protections against high electrostatic discharges or electric fields (e.g. 2kV
HBM); however, anti-static precautions should be taken as for any other CMOS component. Unless
otherwise specified, proper operation can only occur when all terminal voltages are kept within the
supply voltage range. Unused inputs must always be tied to a defined logic voltage level.
