Description
The LIS302DLH is an ultra low-power high
performance three axes linear accelerometer
belonging to the “piccolo” family, with digital
I2C/SPI serial interface standard output.
The device features ultra low-power operational
modes that allow advanced power saving and
smart sleep to wake-up functions.
The LIS302DLH has dynamically user selectable
full scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g and it is capable of
measuring accelerations with output data rates
from 0.5 Hz to 1 kHz.
The self-test capability allows the user to check
the functioning of the sensor in the final
application.
The device may be configured to generate
interrupt signal by inertial wake-up/free-fall events
as well as by the position of the device itself.
Thresholds and timing of interrupt generators are
programmable by the end user on the fly.
The LIS302DLH is available in small thin plastic
land grid array package (LGA) and it is
guaranteed to operate over an extended
temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

2.5 Terminology
2.5.1 Sensitivity
Sensitivity describes the gain of the sensor and can be determined e.g. by applying 1 g
acceleration to it. As the sensor can measure DC accelerations this can be done easily by
pointing the axis of interest towards the center of the earth, noting the output value, rotating
the sensor by 180 degrees (pointing to the sky) and noting the output value again. By doing
so, ±1 g acceleration is applied to the sensor. Subtracting the larger output value from the
smaller one, and dividing the result by 2, leads to the actual sensitivity of the sensor. This
value changes very little over temperature and also time. The sensitivity tolerance describes
the range of Sensitivities of a large population of sensors.
2.5.2 Zero-g level
Zero-g level offset (TyOff) describes the deviation of an actual output signal from the ideal
output signal if no acceleration is present. A sensor in a steady state on a horizontal surface
will measure 0 g in X axis and 0 g in Y axis whereas the Z axis will measure 1 g. The output
is ideally in the middle of the dynamic range of the sensor (content of OUT registers 00h,
data expressed as 2’s complement number). A deviation from ideal value in this case is
called Zero-g offset. Offset is to some extent a result of stress to MEMS sensor and
therefore the offset can slightly change after mounting the sensor onto a printed circuit
board or exposing it to extensive mechanical stress. Offset changes little over temperature,
see “Zero-g level change vs. temperature”. The Zero-g level tolerance (TyOff) describes the
standard deviation of the range of Zero-g levels of a population of sensors.
2.5.3 Self-test
Self-test allows to check the sensor functionality without moving it. The self-test function is
off when the self-test bit (ST) of CTRL_REG4 (control register 4) is programmed to ‘0‘.
When the self-test bit of CTRL_REG4 is programmed to ‘1‘ an actuation force is applied to
the sensor, simulating a definite input acceleration. In this case the sensor outputs will
exhibit a change in their DC levels which are related to the selected full scale through the
device sensitivity. When self-test is activated, the device output level is given by the
algebraic sum of the signals produced by the acceleration acting on the sensor and by the
electrostatic test-force. If the output signals change within the amplitude specified inside
Table 3, then the sensor is working properly and the parameters of the interface chip are
within the defined specifications.
2.5.4 Sleep to wake-up
The “sleep to wake-up” function, in conjunction with low-power mode, allows to further
reduce the system power consumption and develop new smart applications.
LIS302DLH may be set in a low-power operating mode, characterized by lower date rates
refreshments. In this way the device, even if sleeping, keep on sensing acceleration and
generating interrupt requests.
When the “sleep to wake-up” function is activated, LIS302DLH is able to automatically
wake-up as soon as the interrupt event has been detected, increasing the output data rate
and bandwidth.
With this feature the system may be efficiently switched from low-power mode to full-
performance depending on user-selectable positioning and acceleration events, thus
ensuring power saving and flexibility.

LIS302DLH Functionality
Doc ID 15797 Rev 1 15/37
3 Functionality
The LIS302DLH is a nano, low-power, digital output 3-axis linear accelerometer packaged in
a LGA package. The complete device includes a sensing element and an IC interface able
to take the information from the sensing element and to provide a signal to the external
world through an I2C/SPI serial interface.
3.1 Sensing element
A proprietary process is used to create a surface micro-machined accelerometer. The
technology allows to carry out suspended silicon structures which are attached to the
substrate in a few points called anchors and are free to move in the direction of the sensed
acceleration. To be compatible with the traditional packaging techniques a cap is placed on
top of the sensing element to avoid blocking the moving parts during the moulding phase of
the plastic encapsulation.
When an acceleration is applied to the sensor the proof mass displaces from its nominal
position, causing an imbalance in the capacitive half-bridge. This imbalance is measured
using charge integration in response to a voltage pulse applied to the capacitor.
At steady state the nominal value of the capacitors are few pF and when an acceleration is
applied the maximum variation of the capacitive load is in the fF range.
3.2 IC interface
The complete measurement chain is composed by a low-noise capacitive amplifier which
converts the capacitive unbalancing of the MEMS sensor into an analog voltage that is
finally available to the user by an analog-to-digital converter.
The acceleration data may be accessed through an I2C/SPI interface thus making the
device particularly suitable for direct interfacing with a microcontroller.
The LIS302DLH features a Data-Ready signal (RDY) which indicates when a new set of
measured acceleration data is available thus simplifying data synchronization in the digital
system that uses the device.
The LIS302DLH may also be configured to generate an inertial Wake-Up and Free-Fall
interrupt signal accordingly to a programmed acceleration event along the enabled axes.
Both Free-Fall and Wake-Up can be available simultaneously on two different pins.
3.3 Factory calibration
The IC interface is factory calibrated for sensitivity (So) and Zero-g level (TyOff).
The trimming values are stored inside the device in a non volatile memory. Any time the
device is turned on, the trimming parameters are downloaded into the registers to be used
during the active operation. This allows to use the device without further calibration.

4 Application hints
Figure 5. LIS302DLH electrical connection
The device core is supplied through Vdd line while the I/O pads are supplied through
Vdd_IO line. Power supply decoupling capacitors (100 nF ceramic, 10 µF Aluminum) should
be placed as near as possible to the pin 6 of the device (common design practice).
All the voltage and ground supplies must be present at the same time to have proper
behavior of the IC (refer to Figure 5). It is possible to remove Vdd maintaining Vdd_IO
without blocking the communication bus, in this condition the measurement chain is
powered off.
The functionality of the device and the measured acceleration data is selectable and
accessible through the I2C/SPI interface.When using the I2C, CS must be tied high.
The functions, the threshold and the timing of the two interrupt pins (INT 1 and INT 2) can be
completely programmed by the user through the I2C/SPI interface.
4.1 Soldering information
The LGA package is compliant with the ECOPACK®, RoHS and “Green” standard.
It is qualified for soldering heat resistance according to JEDEC J-STD-020C.
Leave “Pin 1 Indicator” unconnected during soldering.

5 Digital interfaces
The registers embedded inside the LIS302DLH may be accessed through both the I2C and
SPI serial interfaces. The latter may be SW configured to operate either in 3-wire or 4-wire
interface mode.
The serial interfaces are mapped onto the same pads. To select/exploit the I2C interface, CS
line must be tied high (i.e. connected to Vdd_IO).
5.1 I2C serial interface
The LIS302DLH I2C is a bus slave. The I2C is employed to write data into registers whose
content can also be read back.
The relevant I2C terminology is given in the table below.
There are two signals associated with the I2C bus: the serial clock line (SCL) and the Serial
DAta line (SDA). The latter is a bidirectional line used for sending and receiving the data
to/from the interface. Both the lines are connected to Vdd_IO through a pull-up resistor
embedded inside the LIS302DLH. When the bus is free both the lines are high.
The I2C interface is compliant with fast mode (400 kHz) I2C standards as well as with the
normal mode.

Digital interfaces LIS302DLH
18/37 Doc ID 15797 Rev 1
5.1.1 I2C operation
The transaction on the bus is started through a START (ST) signal. A START condition is
defined as a HIGH to LOW transition on the data line while the SCL line is held HIGH. After
this has been transmitted by the Master, the bus is considered busy. The next byte of data
transmitted after the start condition contains the address of the slave in the first 7 bits and
the eighth bit tells whether the Master is receiving data from the slave or transmitting data to
the slave. When an address is sent, each device in the system compares the first seven bits
after a start condition with its address. If they match, the device considers itself addressed
by the Master.
The Slave ADdress (SAD) associated to the LIS302DLH is 001100xb. SDO/SA0 pad can be
used to modify less significant bit of the device address. If SA0 pad is connected to voltage
supply, LSb is ‘1’ (address 0011001b) else if SA0 pad is connected to ground, LSb value is
‘0’ (address 0011000b). This solution permits to connect and address two different
accelerometers to the same I2C lines.
Data transfer with acknowledge is mandatory. The transmitter must release the SDA line
during the acknowledge pulse. The receiver must then pull the data line LOW so that it
remains stable low during the HIGH period of the acknowledge clock pulse. A receiver which
has been addressed is obliged to generate an acknowledge after each byte of data
received.
The I2C embedded inside the LIS302DLH behaves like a slave device and the following
protocol must be adhered to. After the start condition (ST) a slave address is sent, once a
slave acknowledge (SAK) has been returned, a 8-bit sub-address (SUB) is transmitted: the
7 LSb represent the actual register address while the MSB enables address auto increment.
If the MSb of the SUB field is ‘1’, the SUB (register address) is automatically increased to
allow multiple data read/write.
The slave address is completed with a Read/Write bit. If the bit was ‘1’ (Read), a repeated
START (SR) condition must be issued after the two sub-address bytes; if the bit is ‘0’ (Write)
the Master will transmit to the slave with direction unchanged. Table 10 explains how the
SAD+Read/Write bit pattern is composed, listing all the possible configurations.

LIS302DLH Digital interfaces
Doc ID 15797 Rev 1 19/37
Data are transmitted in byte format (DATA). Each data transfer contains 8 bits. The number
of bytes transferred per transfer is unlimited. Data is transferred with the Most Significant bit
(MSb) first. If a receiver can’t receive another complete byte of data until it has performed
some other function, it can hold the clock line, SCL LOW to force the transmitter into a wait
state. Data transfer only continues when the receiver is ready for another byte and releases
the data line. If a slave receiver doesn’t acknowledge the slave address (i.e. it is not able to
receive because it is performing some real time function) the data line must be left HIGH by
the slave. The Master can then abort the transfer. A LOW to HIGH transition on the SDA line
while the SCL line is HIGH is defined as a STOP condition. Each data transfer must be
terminated by the generation of a STOP (SP) condition.
In order to read multiple bytes, it is necessary to assert the most significant bit of the sub-
address field. In other words, SUB(7) must be equal to 1 while SUB(6-0) represents the
address of first register to be read.
In the presented communication format MAK is Master acknowledge and NMAK is No
Master Acknowledge.
5.2 SPI bus interface
The LIS302DLH SPI is a bus slave. The SPI allows to write and read the registers of the
device.
The Serial Interface interacts with the outside world with 4 wires: CS, SPC, SDI and SDO.

Figure 6. Read and write protocol
CS is the serial port enable and it is controlled by the SPI master. It goes low at the start of
the transmission and goes back high at the end. SPC is the serial port clock and it is
controlled by the SPI master. It is stopped high when CS is high (no transmission). SDI and
SDO are respectively the serial port data input and output. Those lines are driven at the
falling edge of SPC and should be captured at the rising edge of SPC.
Both the read register and write register commands are completed in 16 clock pulses or in
multiple of 8 in case of multiple bytes read/write. Bit duration is the time between two falling
edges of SPC. The first bit (bit 0) starts at the first falling edge of SPC after the falling edge
of CS while the last bit (bit 15, bit 23, ...) starts at the last falling edge of SPC just before the
rising edge of CS.
bit 0: RW bit. When 0, the data DI(7:0) is written into the device. When 1, the data DO(7:0)
from the device is read. In latter case, the chip will drive SDO at the start of bit 8.
bit 1: MS bit. When 0, the address will remain unchanged in multiple read/write commands.
When 1, the address is auto incremented in multiple read/write commands.
bit 2-7: address AD(5:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.
bit 8-15: data DI(7:0) (write mode). This is the data that is written into the device (MSb first).
bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that is read from the device (MSb first).
In multiple read/write commands further blocks of 8 clock periods will be added. When MS
bit is ‘0’ the address used to read/write data remains the same for every block. When MS bit
is ‘1’ the address used to read/write data is increased at every block.
The function and the behavior of SDI and SDO remain unchanged.

3-wires mode is entered by setting to ‘1’ bit SIM (SPI serial interface mode selection) in
CTRL_REG4.
Figure 11. SPI read protocol in 3-wires mode
The SPI read command is performed with 16 clock pulses:
bit 0: READ bit. The value is 1.
bit 1: MS bit. When 0 do not increment address, when 1 increment address in multiple
reading.
bit 2-7: address AD(5:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.
bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that is read from the device (MSb first).
Multiple read command is also available in 3-wires mode.

The content of the registers that are loaded at boot should not be changed. They contain the
factory calibration values. Their content is automatically restored when the device is
powered-up.
7 Register description
The device contains a set of registers which are used to control its behavior and to retrieve
acceleration data. The registers address, made of 7 bits, is used to identify them and to
write the data through serial interface.
7.1 WHO_AM_I (0Fh)
Device identification register.
This register contains the device identifier that for LIS302DLH is set to 32h.
7.2 CTRL_REG1 (20h)
PM bits allow to select between power-down and two operating active modes. The device is
in power-down mode when PD bits are set to “000” (default value after boot). Table 19

data in the low-power modes are computed with low-pass filter cut-off frequency defined by
DR1, DR0 bits.
DR bits, in the normal-mode operation, select the data rate at which acceleration samples
are produced. In low-power mode they define the output data resolution. Table 20 shows all
the possible configuration for DR1 and DR0 bits.

BOOT bit is used to refresh the content of internal registers stored in the flash memory
block. At the device power up the content of the flash memory block is transferred to the
internal registers related to trimming functions to permit a good behavior of the device itself.
If for any reason the content of trimming registers was changed it is sufficient to use this bit
to restore correct values. When BOOT bit is set to ‘1’ the content of internal flash is copied
inside corresponding internal registers and it is used to calibrate the device. These values
are factory trimmed and they are different for every accelerometer. They permit a good
behavior of the device and normally they have not to be changed. At the end of the boot
process the BOOT bit is set again to ‘0’.
HPCF[1:0]. These bits are used to configure high-pass filter cut-off frequency ft which is
given by:
The equation can be simplified to the following approximated equation:
HPen2 High pass filter enabled for interrupt 2 source. Default value: 0

BDU bit is used to inhibit output registers update between the reading of upper and lower
register parts. In default mode (BDU = ‘0’) the lower and upper register parts are updated
continuously. If it is not sure to read faster than output data rate, it is recommended to set
BDU bit to ‘1’. In this way, after the reading of the lower (upper) register part, the content of
that output registers is not updated until the upper (lower) part is read too.
This feature avoids reading LSB and MSB related to different samples.
7.6 CTRL_REG5 (24h)
TurnOn bits are used for turning on the sleep to wake function.
Setting TurnOn[1:0] bits to 11 the “sleep to wake” function is enabled. When an interrupt

CTRL_REG1. Although the device is in normal mode, CTRL_REG1 content is not
automatically changed to “normal mode” configuration.
7.7 HP_FILTER_RESET (25h)
Dummy register. Reading at this address zeroes instantaneously the content of the internal
high pass-filter. If the high pass filter is enabled all three axes are instantaneously set to 0g.
This allows to overcome the settling time of the high pass filter.
7.8 REFERENCE (26h)
This register sets the acceleration value taken as a reference for the high-pass filter output.
When filter is turned on (at least one of FDS, HPen2, or HPen1 bit is equal to ‘1’) and HPM
bits are set to “01”, filter out is generated taking this value as a reference.
