Crossbow Tilt Sensors

CXTILT02E Digital Inclinometer

The CXTILT02E inclinometer offers outstanding resolution, response speed, and accuracy. The CXTILT02E measures the tilt angle of an object with respect to the horizontal in a static environment. To measure tilt, also called roll and pitch, the sensor makes use of two micro-machined accelerometers, one oriented along the X-axis and one along the Y-axis. 

The CXTILT02E is a "smart" sensor with an on-board micro-controller, A/D converter, and temperature sensor. The combination of sensing elements and digital electronics yields a system requiring no user calibration. The sensor’s resolution and settling time are programmable, allowing the CXTILT02E to be customized for various applications.
