RC Enable
A good design practice is to control the KXPS5 Enable pin (6) with a
microprocessor, but it is also possible to enable the KXPS5 using the RC circuit
shown in Figure 3. This circuit will transition the Enable pin high at power on,
properly enabling the accelerometer after power has been supplied. Note that the
RC values are just recommendations, therefore the final schematic may differ
based on application needs.
