Kit Overview
The ADXL345ADXL345 Development Board (EVAL-ADXL345Z-DBEVAL-ADXL345Z-DB) is an easy-to-use tool designed to shorten application development time by providing a ready-to-use platform for data collection and firmware development. The ADXL345ADXL345 is a small, thin, low power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos complement and is accessible through either a SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I2C digital interface.
The EVAL-ADXL345Z-DBEVAL-ADXL345Z-DB board is pre-configured as a datalogger that can be used to gather data for refining algorithms, tuning thresholds, and generally familiarizing oneself with accelerometer data. Powered by two AAA batteries, the board is completely untethered and integrates seamlessly into portable applications. Logged data is stored on a MicroSD memory card, providing essentially unlimited memory capacity and operating system versatility. Data is stored in a text (.txt) file, so no software installation is required to operate the board or read data. A 2GB MicroSD card and a USB MicroSD card reader are provided with the board.
Additionally, the board is fully programmable, providing a hardware platform on which firmware can be tested in parallel with development of application hardware. Communications and processing are performed by an ARM7-based ADuC7024ADuC7024 micro-controller, and firmware is written in C. A programming cable is provided with the board, and a development environment and header files are supplied on product page. Finally, the platform can be duplicated in the final application, having already been tested with the application firmware. Schematics and layout can be found under the Supporting Documentation tab and can be used freely in your application.

Software Tools
Keil IDE
In addition to the ready-to-upload examples provided with the Development Board, the development board is fully modifiable and reprogrammable to allow for easy prototyping and firmware development. Keil IDE can be used to create new firmware, whnic is compiled for the ADuC7024 ARM7 processor.
The MDK-ARM is the complete software development environment for ARM7, ARM9, Cortex-M, and Cortex-R4 processor-based devices. MDK is specifically designed for microcontroller applications and combines the ARM C/C++ Compiler with the Keil RTX real-time operating system and middleware libraries. All tools are integrated into μVision which includes project management, editor and debugger in a single easy-to-use environment. The fully integrated ARM C/C++ Compiler offers significant code-size and performance benefits to the embedded developer, however, MDK can also be used with the GNU GCC Compiler.
