Product details
Overview
H3LIS331DLTR from STMicroelectronics is a high-g, low-power 3-axis digital accelerometer with I²C/SPI interface, ±100g/±200g/±400g dynamically selectable full scales, 0.5 Hz–1 kHz output data rate, and 7 µA low-power mode current. It delivers shock detection and impact logging in wearables, sports concussion monitoring, and asset tracking systems.
For engineers reviewing the H3LIS331DLTR datasheet, H3LIS331DLTR pinout, H3LIS331DLTR application, or H3LIS331DLTR equivalent, key selection criteria include programmable inertial interrupts (INT1/INT2), factory-calibrated sensitivity (±0.01 %/°C TCSo), dual supply rails (Vdd: 2.16–3.6 V, Vdd_IO: 1.71–Vdd+0.1 V), and TFLGA-16L 3×3×1.0 mm³ package compatibility with ECOPACK/RoHS requirements.
Technical Context
The H3LIS331DLTR integrates a surface-micromachined capacitive MEMS sensing element with a low-noise charge amplifier and 12-bit ADC, enabling DC-coupled acceleration measurement across three orthogonal axes. Its digital interface supports both I²C (up to 400 kHz fast mode) and SPI (up to 10 MHz), with CS pin selecting protocol mode and SA0 configuring I²C slave address (0011000/0011001).
It implements two independent programmable interrupt generators for motion detection, free-fall, and wake-up events, coupled with sleep-to-wake functionality that transitions automatically from low-power mode (0.5–10 Hz ODR) to full-performance mode (up to 1 kHz) upon threshold crossing. Factory-trimmed sensitivity and zero-g offset are stored in nonvolatile memory and loaded at power-on.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Full Scale Range | ±100g / ±200g / ±400g - user-selectable via register bits; determines resolution (49/98/195 mg/digit) and usable dynamic range |
| Output Data Rate (ODR) | 0.5 Hz to 1 kHz - configurable in normal mode (50/100/400/1000 Hz) and low-power mode (0.5–10 Hz); sets system latency and bandwidth |
| Supply Current | 7 µA (low-power mode, 0.5 Hz ODR) - enables multi-year battery life in wearable impact loggers and asset trackers |
| Sensitivity Tempco | ±0.01 %/°C - ensures stable g-to-digital conversion across -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range without recalibration |
| Shock Survivability | 10000 g for 0.1 ms - validated mechanical robustness for crash detection and high-impact sports applications |
| Digital Interface | I²C (400 kHz fast mode) and SPI (10 MHz, 3-/4-wire) - dual-protocol flexibility for microcontroller integration without external level shifters |
| Zero-g Offset Accuracy | ±1 g typical (calibrated at ±1 g) - factory-trimmed offset reduces need for host-side calibration in production firmware |
Pinout & Package
Package: TFLGA-16L, 3 × 3 × 1.0 mm³, land grid array with exposed pad (RoHS/ECOPACK compliant). Pin 1 indicator located at top-left corner (top view).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Vdd_IO | I/O power supply rail | Supplies 1.71–Vdd+0.1 V to all digital pins; decoupled separately from core Vdd; enables 1.8 V logic compatibility |
| 4 SCL/SPC | Serial clock input | Shared I²C clock (SCL) or SPI clock (SPC); supports up to 400 kHz (I²C) or 10 MHz (SPI) |
| 6 SDA/SDI/SDO | Bidirectional serial data | I²C data (SDA), SPI input (SDI), or 3-wire SPI output (SDO); internal pull-ups eliminate external resistors |
| 7 SDO/SA0 | Output/data address select | Configures I²C slave address LSB (0011000 or 0011001); also serves as SPI 4-wire output (SDO) |
| 8 CS | Interface mode select | High = I²C mode; Low = SPI enabled; critical for protocol initialization and bus arbitration |
| 9 & 11 INT1/INT2 | Programmable inertial interrupts | Open-drain outputs driven by configurable motion/fall/wake-up events; support push-pull via external pull-up |
| 14 Vdd | Analog/MEMS core supply | 2.16–3.6 V main supply; powers sensing element and analog chain; may be removed while retaining I²C/SPI communication |
| 5/12/13/16 GND | Ground reference | Four dedicated ground terminals minimize noise coupling and improve EMI immunity in high-shock environments |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dynamic Full-Scale Selection | Runtime reconfiguration of ±100g/±200g/±400g via control register - optimizes resolution vs. range trade-off per use case (e.g., ±100g for concussion detection, ±400g for crash event capture) |
| Sleep-to-Wake Functionality | Automatic transition from 0.5 Hz low-power mode to 1 kHz full-rate mode upon interrupt trigger - eliminates polling overhead and extends battery life in always-on impact monitors |
| Factory-Calibrated Sensitivity & Offset | Trim values stored in nonvolatile memory and auto-loaded at boot - removes requirement for end-equipment calibration and reduces firmware complexity |
| Dual Independent Interrupt Outputs | INT1 and INT2 independently configurable for different event types (e.g., INT1 = free-fall, INT2 = high-g shock) - enables parallel real-time response without MCU intervention |
| 10000 g Shock Survivability | Validated mechanical resilience to transient overloads - ensures operational continuity after severe impacts in automotive crash sensors and sports equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-g accelerometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADXL372BCPZ | 2000 g range, 200 Hz max ODR, 22 µA typical current, integrated FFT engine | Optimized for vibration analysis, not shock/event logging; lacks sleep-to-wake and dual interrupts | Prefer for predictive maintenance; avoid when sub-10 ms event timing or ultra-low power are required |
| LSM303AGR | ±2/±4/±8 g range, 1.9 mA current, integrated magnetometer, no high-g capability | Designed for tilt/orientation, not impact detection; unsuitable for >10 g applications | Only viable for low-g motion sensing; cannot substitute for crash or concussion use cases |
Compared with ADXL372BCPZ and LSM303AGR, the H3LIS331DLTR uniquely combines 10000 g survivability, programmable dual interrupts, and 7 µA low-power operation-making it the only option among the three qualified for battery-powered, high-shock event detection in wearables and automotive safety systems.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for H3LIS331DLTR operation?
The H3LIS331DLTR requires Vdd between 2.16 V and 3.6 V for analog/MEMS core operation, and Vdd_IO between 1.71 V and Vdd+0.1 V for I/O pins. Both supplies must be present simultaneously for full functionality; however, Vdd may be removed while maintaining Vdd_IO to retain I²C/SPI communication with the measurement chain powered off.
How does the sleep-to-wake-up feature function in practice?
Sleep-to-wake operates by configuring the device in low-power mode (e.g., 0.5 Hz ODR), where it continuously monitors acceleration but consumes only 7 µA. When a programmable interrupt condition (e.g., >100 g for 2 ms) occurs on INT1 or INT2, the device autonomously increases ODR to full rate (e.g., 1 kHz) and asserts the interrupt pin-enabling immediate high-fidelity data capture without MCU polling.
Can H3LIS331DLTR be used with a 1.8 V microcontroller without level shifters?
Yes. The H3LIS331DLTR supports 1.8 V I/O compatibility via its separate Vdd_IO rail (1.71–Vdd+0.1 V), and includes internal pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines. When Vdd_IO = 1.8 V, all digital pins meet 1.8 V logic thresholds (VIH = 1.44 V, VOL = 0.18 V), eliminating need for external level translation in 1.8 V systems.
What is the significance of the "10000 g high-shock survivability" specification?
This rating means the H3LIS331DLTR has been tested and verified to remain functional after exposure to mechanical shocks of 10000 g for 0.1 ms or 3000 g for 0.5 ms-conditions representative of automotive crashes or sports impacts. It reflects mechanical design margin, not measurement range; the device measures up to ±400 g but survives far higher transient overloads without damage.
