Circuit Principle Instructions:

The ADXL345 accelerometer operates by detecting changes in acceleration along the X, Y, and Z axes using micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. It outputs data that can be read using either I2C or SPI communication protocols. In both cases, the data is typically a 16-bit value for each axis, which can be processed by a microcontroller for various applications such as motion detection, orientation sensing, or gaming.

I2C Communication: Data is transmitted via the SDA and SCL pins. The microcontroller must provide a clock signal on SCL while data is sent over SDA. The CS pin should be connected to ground to enable I2C mode. SPI Communication: This mode uses SDI (SPI Data Input) and SDO (SPI Data Output) pins for communication, with CS being used to select the chip and start the communication.

The accelerometer can output the acceleration values from all three axes (X, Y, Z) via the XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT pins in the form of analog voltages, proportional to the detected acceleration.
