LIS3DH

The LIS3DH is the first device of a new family of accelerometers, featuring extremely low power consumption
(up to 2 µA) and smart features such as sleep-to-wakeup and return-to-sleep functions. It offers full scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g/±16g dynamically selectable by the user.

Compared to previous accelerometers, the LIS3DH includes a 32-level FIFO buffer, a temperature sensor and an analog-to-digital converter.
