Accelerometers
• ADXL321
– Operating voltage 3.3V
– Quiescent supply current of
0.49 mA
– Dual axis
– Medium impact (+/- 18g)
• Voltage divider is going to
be needed later on

Power System
• Voltage regulator (LM1117)
– 5V and 3.3V available on board
• Goal is to have base station powered
through USB
– USB can supply up 100mA
• Helmet will be powered by battery. TBD
