I am using ADXL362/346 on a project to detect a fall
Is there any tips or tutorials helps me write the code ?
After you decide which one to use, check the data sheet for built in fall detection.
This is what is written on the chip ADXL362/346
how should I know which data sheet it belongs to?
362 or 346?
ps: I am a beginner in arduino

What "chip"? Post a link to whatever it is you are referring to.
That is the ADXL362, so consult the ADXL362 data sheet.
Either use a 3.3V Arduino with that module, or for a 5V Arduino, also buy and use a 3.3V to 5V level converter.
thank you so much !
I have another questions
do I have to solder the header pins to the module ?
does it work without soldering just attatching?
Yes, you must either solder wires directly to the connecting holes or solder header pins.
Carefully study tutorials on line if you have not done that before.
Another question if you please
I am using ADXL362
on the chip, the pins are called scl sdA ..
and in the datasheet , there are different names
MOSI
MISO
SCLK??
Any help on how should I connect them ?
The labeling on the module is misleading. The Sparkfun version is not mislabeled, so consider buying from them.
This uses the SPI interface, SCL=SCLK, SDA=MOSI, SDO=MISO.
Note that the Adafruit library is supplied, so look around for tutorials.
