| FFF Compatibility | Shares the identical SOT1615-3 (DFN-10) package and pinout configuration.Matches the 2 mm x 2 mm x 0.95 mm dimensions exactly.Identical measurement ranges, power consumption, interfaces, and sensor performance parameters. | Uses a 12-LGA (2x2mm) footprint rather than the 10-DFN (2x2mm), necessitating a board redesign.Same overall 2x2mm body size, but has a different height profile and pad pattern.Directly matches the ±2g/4g/8g/16g range and standard I2C/SPI digital interfaces. | ||
FXLS8974CFR3 by STMicroelectronics: 3-Axis MEMS Accelerometer with wake-up on motion. | The FXLS8964AFR1 is a direct drop-in functional equivalent of the FXLS8974CF in the same series, sharing identical packaging, electrical specifications, and pin mapping. It offers identical performance ranges and low-power modes.
| The LIS2DW12TR is STMicroelectronics' premier ultra-low-power accelerometer offering equivalent performance ranges and multi-functional digital outputs. While functionally compatible, it is housed in a 12-LGA package, requiring a minor PCB footprint update.
