The RAK12032 WisBlock 3-Axis Accelerometer Module integrates the Analog Devices ADXL313 to bring high-resolution motion and vibration sensing to the WisBlock ecosystem.
 
With a selectable measurement range of ±0.5 g to ±4 g, ultra-low noise of 150 µg/√Hz, and power-efficient operation, it is ideal for both battery-powered and industrial IoT designs.
 
The module’s I²C digital interface and ready-to-use software library simplify setup and data acquisition. Combined with a WisBlock Core, it becomes a complete motion-tracking system capable of monitoring machinery vibration, motion events, or even geophysical activity such as volcano monitoring.
 
It can also be paired with other WisBlock sensors — for example, GPS or barometric modules — to create inertial navigation or multi-sensor analysis systems.
