The 4-Directional Tilt Sensor is a perfect accelerometer replacement in those applications which may not need precise angular feedback. This type of sensor is commonly used in many smart phones and digital cameras as a cheaper means to adjust the screen display when the device is rotated.

Features and Specifications:

• Small 6-pin DIP packaging with breadboard-friendly 0.1" pin spacing
• Easy communication with any microcontroller
• Positional feedback in four directions
• Power requirements: 3 to 5.5 VDC
• Communication: 2-pin high/low output for four sensor states
• Dimensions: 0.42 x 0.32 x 0.49 in (1.07 x 0.81 x 1.24 cm)
• Operating temp range: 32 to 122 °F (0 to 50 °C)
