Abstract :
This paper designed a digital Inclinometer that was composed of a MEMS accelerometer ADXL202 and a micro controller C8051F206. The ADXL202´s output signal is processed, then is acquired and is turned to angle value by micro controller, finally the angle is displayed by a LCD. The inclinometer is compact, light weight, low power consumption and easy useful. It can be widely used in mechanism, architecture, military and other fields.
