#MEMS: "Freescale MEMS sensors target mobile"

MEMS sensor are becoming standard equipment on all touchscreen-based devices, including all low-end smartphones and other mobile devices. Freescale is accordingly filling out its catalog of inexpensive MEMS accelerometers with ultra-small inexpensive models that nevertheless do not compromise of specifications: R. Colin Johnson



Here is what EETimes says about Freescale's new accelerometers: As smart touchscreen devices shrink in price and size, MEMS motions sensors must keep pace. To that end, Freescale Semiconductor recently introduced a smaller, cheaper MEMS device the company claims does not compromise on accuracy, noise and power specifications for the next-generation of low-cost smartphones, tablets, digital cameras, portable navigation and health care devices...
