... In the event that the ISEB firmware becomes corrupted or must be updated, the CD contains the necessary programming utility to flash the ISEB microcontroller. Also available on the CD is the version of firmware available at the time of release of the EVAL- ADXL346Z-M system (Version 1.3). In addition, as new firmware is made available, it can be downloaded from the Analog Devices website (www ...

... ISEB is replaced by a satellite of a different part only; replacing the satellite with a satellite for the same part, that is, an EVAL-ADXL346Z-S with another EVAL- ADXL346Z-S, does not require SW2 to be pressed. The inertial sensor evaluation system GUI is opened by executing the ADXL346 Evaluation GUI ...

... ADXL346 is not experiencing dynamic acceleration, the offset temperature coefficient can be determined by taking the slope of the best-fit line to the acceleration vs. temperature data. The inertial sensor evaluation system assists in the accuracy of this measurement by putting the accelerometer on a separate satellite. Only the satellite has to be placed in an ...
