Description

The 3AD is a 3-Axis 2G accelerometer with breakout board. Based on Freescale's MMA7455 accelerometer (datasheet) It has several convenient features like an onboard analog / digital converter and selectable sensitivity (2G, 4G, or 8G).

The 3AD offers I2C and can be dropped directly in the Propeller Platform's second EEPROM slot;

Sample code for use with the Propeller is also available here. The schematic is here.
Make It!

The 3AD comes pre-assembled. It also includes a DIP8 socket and 10k resistor if you want to add it to the Propeller Platform's second EEPROM slot.
