*Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-

nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; the functional operation of

the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational

sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating

conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Drops onto hard surfaces can cause shocks of greater than 2000 g

and exceed the absolute maximum rating of the device. Care

should be exercised in handling to avoid damage.

CAUTION

ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily

accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.

Although the ADXL150/ADXL250 feature proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent

damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, pro per

ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of function ality.

WARNING!
