I'm not sure about that. I guess it depends on the specifics of the application, but there is no 3-axis spi version of the alg dev mems chips afaik. The SPI chips are much more expensive (obviously there are costs wrt SPI alternatives) and targeted.

No. There are reportedly solderable to SPI pins inside the chip. You can directly connect some accelerometer chips to these with absolutely no circuitry. _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
