Power Down mode

For low power applications it is possible to set the accelerometer into power down mode. During

the power down mode the power consumption is minimized inside the device. This is achieved by

stopping the internal clocks and resetting the control registers of the device. Please refer to the

individual device data sheets for detail power consumption figures.

Recommended start-up sequence

For correct device operation there are no specific configuration needed for the device before

starting of measuring the acceleration. However if the device detail features are being used the

following operations could be made after the powering on the device.
