MA780GQ-Z from Monolithic Power Systems, in a QFN-16(3x3). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 ND output New data output: in ASC mode it indicates when new data is ready to be read, and it also indicates when the displacement exceeds the defined threshold.
2 ERR output Error flag output that is set to logic 1 when any error flag is asserted and is cleared by the SPI Clear Error Flags command.
3 NVM output Non-volatile memory busy output that is high while the chip is accessing the NVM; SPI writes sent while it is high set the ERRMEM flag.
4 MOSI input SPI data input from the controller.
5 /CS input SPI chip select input.
6 ASC input Auto-sampling cycle input; connect to GND if the ASC function is not used.
7 MISO output SPI data output that is pulled low when /CS is set to logic 1.
8 GND power_in Supply ground.
9 DV output Data valid output that indicates whether the digital filter has stabilized in active mode.
10 TEST passive Test pin that must be connected to ground.
11 N/C unconnected No connection; do not make connections to this pin because it is internally connected.
12 SCLK input SPI clock input.
13 VDD power_in 3.3V supply (recommended operating range 3.0V to 3.6V, absolute maximum -0.5V to +4.6V).
14 VDDIO power_in I/O supply of 1.8V to 3.3V that allows SPI communication at any voltage in that range (recommended operating range 1.8V to 3.6V).
15 EN input Enable input that switches the sensor to active mode; connect to GND if it is not used.
16 N/C unconnected No connection; do not make connections to this pin because it is internally connected.
17 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
