This Product Selection Guide contains information to help select products in the Multifunction category on DigiKey.com
Multifunction sensors and transducers incorporate two or more individual sensors with driving and output conditioning circuitry. The data is communicated via a single output type such as Bluetooth, USB, CAN bus, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, or RS-485. Combination examples include accelerometer-magnetometer, humidity-pressure-temperature, humidity-light-pressure-sound-temperature-tilt-vibration, and accelerometer-gyroscope.
SelectionCharacteristics
Sensor Type: Indicates the different sensors incorporated into the device.
Output Type: Indication of which interface(s) or protocol(s) are used by the device to communicate with other components in the system.
Operating Temperature: Recommended operating temperature, typically given in a range or as a maximum. Exceeding these temperatures may affect performance or damage the device and other system components.
