NCS1012EAEPR2

The NCS1012EAEPR2 is the production reel ordering code for the STMicroelectronics NCS1012 inertial sensor module, combining a single-axis (x-axis) gyroscope with a two-axis (xy) medium-g accelerometer in one HQFN-24 package. The accelerometer side is what sets this variant apart: its medium-g span of +/-15 g to +/-150 g is built for events far beyond everyday motion sensing: shocks, impacts and severe vibration that would saturate a low-g device long before the peak is recorded. Pairing that range with an x-axis gyroscope in a single module lets one footprint capture both rotational motion and high-energy linear events, which suits equipment condition monitoring, impact detection, asset tracking and embedded designs where the signal that matters is a jolt rather than gentle movement. The benefit is measurement headroom without a second sensor: the sensing front end stays simple, board area stays small, and the host works from a coordinated motion picture taken at one mounting point. Selection advice: choose this E variant when the gyroscope axis you need is x and the acceleration events are genuinely medium-g. If the design measures ordinary motion instead, the low-g siblings fit better: the NCS1012B pairs a z-axis gyroscope with xy low-g sensing, the NCS1012C pairs an x-axis gyroscope with yz low-g sensing, and the NCS10135 provides a z-axis gyroscope with three-axis low-g sensing. Confirm the axis orientation against your board mounting before layout, and order by the R2 code. Parameters verified against STMicroelectronics documentation.
