Hi all!
I'm mucking about with an AVR/PIC uC and want to choose a suitable
accelerometer
(probably from Analog Devices - but please let me know of any suitable
alternatives!)
to give me good accuracy to calculate 0-62mph times, max lateral G force,
braking G's
etc

What I do need is for someone to point me in the right direction with
regards to how
I can calculate such things using only the accelerometer and a known car
weight?
TIA!

You can check out this article in Circuit Cellar. They used an ADXL202.
