Topic: What accelerometers does it use

I want to know what frequency range are the accelerometers used in Chumbys tuned to? DC-10000Hz? to 500Hz? More...?
If an engineer could please respond to this question, I'd really appreciate it.

Re: What accelerometers does it use

The Ironforge chumby uses a Kionix KXP74-1050 +/- 2g Tri-Axis Digital Accelerometer

Here is the specifications document.  Here is the datasheet.

The source code for the driver for the accelerometer is part of the "sense1" driver that is part of the Linux kernel tarball, found here.
