General description
SCA820-D04 is a single axis inclinometer component based on Murata's capacitive 3D-MEMS technology. The
component integrates high accuracy micromechanical acceleration sensing together with a flexible SPI digital
interface. Dual Flat Lead (DFL) housing guarantees reliable operation over product lifetime.
SCA820-D04 is designed, manufactured and tested for high stability, reliability and quality requirements of automotive
applications. The inclinometer has an extremely stable output over wide ranges of temperature, humidity and
mechanical noise. The component is qualified to the AEC-Q100 standard and has several advanced self diagnostics
features. The DFL housing is suitable for SMD mounting and the component is compatible with the RoHS and ELV
directives.
SCA820-D04 is a part of Murata digital accelerometer family and fully compatible with multi axis accelerometers
(SCA2100 series and SCA3100 series) and other single axis accelerometers (SCA800 series).

± values are ±3 sigma variation limits from validation test population.
Includes offset deviation from 0g value including calibration error and drift over lifetime, temperature and
supply voltage.
Includes offset deviation from 0g value including calibration error and drift over lifetime.
Offset drift due to temperature. Value is a relative value and has been centered to zero. Error defined as maximum change
of offset in temperature range. Offset (max)-Offset Min). 100% tested in production.
