Hi everybody!!
Could you explain me the difference between ADXL362 and ADXL335?

(italian links, but same images....)

The book I use uses ADXL335, but it costs about twice than ADXL362. Could I use ADXL362 for my projects, or I have to buy the more expensive ADXL335?

Thanks!!

Good Night (GMT+1)!

The ADXL335 is analog.
The ADXL362 is with digital SPI interface and is low power.

The ADXL335 could use the functon analogRead().
The ADXL362 needs a software code to interface with the chip via SPI.
