Hi
I am using ADXL350 to detect the angle of rotation for certaim range. Eg. 0 to 60deg, but sometime data is over-range. may be because the data include dynamic acceleration (due to vibration). Is it possible to measure only static acceleration?
ADXL350
Recommended for New Designs
The high performance ADXL350 is a small, thin, low power,
3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) and selectable
measurement ranges up to ±8...

Hi karu,
Thank you for your use of ADXL350. The data being over range is due to vibration rectification effects. It could be maybe that your chosen g-range isn't sufficient enough to fully capture the gravity+vibration accelerations. Here is an article that explains more of VRE (https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/tech-articles/vibration-rectification-in-mems-accelerometers.pdf )
Also you can limit the effects of VRE by choosing an appropriate bandwidth for you to reject high frequency vibrations. Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
John
