Product details
Overview
AIS328DQTR from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance, ultra-low-power 3-axis digital accelerometer qualified for automotive applications (AEC-Q100), operating across -40 °C to +105 °C, with dynamically selectable ±2g/±4g/±8g full-scale ranges, 16-bit SPI/I²C output, and 10 μA low-power mode consumption - used in telematics, black boxes, and motion-activated vehicle safety systems.
For engineers reviewing the AIS328DQTR datasheet, AIS328DQTR pinout, AIS328DQTR application, or AIS328DQTR equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 qualification, dual SPI/I²C interface support, programmable inertial interrupts, embedded self-test, and QFPN-24 package compatibility with automotive-grade thermal and shock survivability (10,000 g).
Technical Context
The AIS328DQTR integrates a MEMS sensing element with a low-noise analog front-end, 12-bit ADC (with 16-bit data output via left-aligned format), and configurable digital signal path including high-pass filtering and sleep-to-wakeup logic. Its dual-mode serial interface supports SPI (4-wire or 3-wire) and I²C (standard/fast-mode), with CS pin selecting protocol and internal pull-ups on SCL/SDA/SDO/SDI/SPC.
Two independent interrupt generators (INT1, INT2) provide user-programmable thresholds, duration, and event sources (motion detection, wake-up, data-ready, FIFO status), enabling autonomous operation without host processor intervention. Factory calibration ensures offset and sensitivity accuracy across temperature, with zero-g offset drift ≤ ±2 mg/°C (X/Y) and ≤ ±3 mg/°C (Z).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.4 V to 3.6 V - supports wide automotive battery range; VDD_IO tolerant to 1.8 V for mixed-voltage system interfacing. |
| Full-Scale Range | ±2g / ±4g / ±8g - software-selectable per application; enables optimal resolution trade-off (e.g., 0.98 mg/digit at ±2g). |
| Output Resolution | 16-bit digital output - provides extended dynamic range beyond native 12-bit ADC via left-aligned format. |
| Low-Power Mode Current | 10 μA - enables always-on monitoring in battery-constrained automotive modules (e.g., parking sensors, impact loggers). |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +105 °C - meets under-hood and cabin deployment requirements per AEC-Q100 Grade 2. |
| Shock Survivability | 10,000 g - ensures functional integrity during crash events or mechanical stress in safety-critical systems. |
| Interface Support | SPI (4-/3-wire) and I²C - dual-protocol flexibility simplifies integration into legacy and new automotive ECUs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: QFPN-24 (4 × 4 × 1.8 mm³), wettable flank, RoHS-compliant, ECOPACK® green packaging.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 | VDD / GND | Dedicated power and ground pins minimize noise coupling; multiple GND pins improve return path integrity for analog and digital domains. |
| 11 | SPC / SCL | Shared clock input: SPI serial port clock or I²C serial clock; internal active pull-up eliminates external resistor. |
| 12 | CS | Mode select: low = SPI enabled, high = I²C mode; also serves as chip select in SPI configuration. |
| 14 | VDD_IO | Independent I/O supply rail - allows 1.8 V logic interfacing while core runs at 3.3 V, reducing EMI and power loss. |
| 15 | SDO / SA0 | Serial data output (SPI) or I²C address LSB; internal pull-up enables open-drain I²C operation without external component. |
| 16 | SDI / SDA | Serial data input (SPI) or bidirectional I²C data line; internal pull-up supports standard I²C bus topology. |
| 3, 7 | INT_2 / INT_1 | Dedicated open-drain interrupt outputs - drive external MCU GPIOs directly; support configurable wakeup and event signaling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Grade 2 reliability certified for automotive use - includes HTOL, TC, ESD, and mechanical shock testing per JEDEC standards. |
| Programmable Interrupt Generators | Two independent engines with configurable threshold, duration, latch behavior, and source (6-axis motion, direction, free-fall, data-ready). |
| Embedded Self-Test | Electrostatic actuation verifies sensor functionality in-system without external stimulus - critical for ASIL-B/C diagnostic coverage. |
| Sleep-to-Wakeup Function | Automatic transition from <10 μA standby to full operation upon inertial event - reduces host MCU polling overhead and system power budget. |
| Factory-Calibrated Offset & Sensitivity | Initial zero-g offset ≤ ±200 mg (X/Y), ≤ ±300 mg (Z); sensitivity tolerance ≤ ±6% - minimizes post-production calibration effort. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-axis automotive accelerometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADXL313WBRMZ-RL | Lower max ODR (400 Hz), no AEC-Q100 qualification, single SPI-only interface, 3.3 V only supply. | Targeted at industrial or consumer-grade motion sensing; lacks automotive temperature range and qualification. | Select if cost-sensitive non-automotive designs require lower power (350 nA standby) but accept reduced robustness. |
| KX132-1211 | Wider voltage range (1.71–3.6 V), integrated FIFO (32×16-bit), higher shock rating (50,000 g), but no I²C interface. | Optimized for high-reliability industrial IoT and wearable impact detection; lacks dual-interface flexibility. | Select when deep FIFO buffering and extreme shock tolerance outweigh need for I²C compatibility in automotive gateway modules. |
Compared with ADXL313WBRMZ-RL and KX132-1211, the AIS328DQTR uniquely balances AEC-Q100 compliance, dual SPI/I²C support, and programmable interrupts - making it the preferred choice for automotive ECUs requiring field-proven qualification, interface flexibility, and deterministic wakeup latency.

FAQ
What is the maximum output data rate (ODR) supported by the AIS328DQTR?
The AIS328DQTR supports an output data rate up to 1 kHz in normal mode, configurable via CTRL_REG1 register. This enables high-fidelity capture of transient events such as impacts or rapid vehicle maneuvers, while lower ODR settings (down to 0.5 Hz) optimize power in always-on monitoring applications.
Does the AIS328DQTR require external pull-up resistors for I²C communication?
No. The AIS328DQTR features internal active pull-ups on SCL (Pin 11), SDA (Pin 16), SDO (Pin 15), and SDI (Pin 16) pins, eliminating the need for external pull-up resistors in standard I²C configurations. External resistors may be added only for specific bus loading or noise immunity requirements.
How is the self-test function implemented, and what does it verify?
The self-test applies electrostatic force to the MEMS proof mass, generating a known acceleration response (e.g., −800 LSb on X-axis at ±2g range). It verifies mechanical integrity, signal chain gain/offset, and register read/write functionality - confirming end-of-line functionality without external equipment, supporting ISO 26262 diagnostic coverage.
Can the AIS328DQTR operate with different supply voltages for core and I/O rails?
Yes. The device separates VDD (2.4–3.6 V for core logic and MEMS) from VDD_IO (1.8 V nominal, up to VDD+0.1 V), enabling direct interfacing with 1.8 V microcontrollers while maintaining full analog performance - critical for mixed-voltage automotive architectures with low-power domain controllers.
