KX124-1051

Kionix Inc · Accelerometers · LGA-16(3x3)

KX124-1051 from Kionix Inc, in a LGA-16(3x3). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 IO_VDD power_in Power supply input for the digital communication I/O pads (1.7V - 3.6V). Optionally decouple to ground with a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor.
2 NC unconnected Not Internally Connected. Can be connected to VDD, IO_VDD, GND or left floating.
3 NC unconnected Not Internally Connected. Can be connected to VDD, IO_VDD, GND or left floating.
4 SCLK/SCL input SPI Serial Clock (SCLK) / I2C Serial Clock (SCL). Muxed pin serving both digital interfaces; interface selection is determined by nCS state (nCS held high = I2C).
5 GND power_in Ground reference.
6 SDI/SDA bidirectional SPI Serial Data Input (SDI) / I2C Serial Data (SDA). Muxed pin serving both digital interfaces; protocol selection is via nCS pin state.
7 SDO/ADDR bidirectional Serial Data Out during 4-wire SPI communication; sets part of the I2C device address during I2C communication. Do not leave floating. I2C slave address is 0x1E or 0x1F depending on this pin.
8 nCS input Chip Select (active LOW) for SPI communication. Connect to IO_VDD for I2C communication. Do not leave floating. Selects the digital interface protocol.
9 INT2 output Physical Interrupt 2 (push-pull). Pin is Hi-Z during POR and driven LOW following POR. Leave floating if not used.
10 NC unconnected Not Internally Connected. Can be connected to VDD, IO_VDD, GND or left floating.
11 INT1 output Physical Interrupt 1 (push-pull). Pin is Hi-Z during POR and driven LOW following POR. Leave floating if not used.
12 GND power_in Ground reference.
13 TRIG input Trigger input pin for FIFO buffer control (Trigger mode). Connect to GND when not using the external trigger option.
14 VDD power_in Main power supply input (1.71V - 3.6V operating). Decouple to ground with a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor.
15 NC unconnected Not Internally Connected. Can be connected to VDD, IO_VDD, GND or left floating.
16 NC unconnected Not Internally Connected. Can be connected to VDD, IO_VDD, GND or left floating.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
kx124-1051.step 177 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
kx124-1051-etched.step 1.6 MB You want the part with KX124-1051 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 423 faces against 104 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
