Thought for 2 sec

Updated the ADXL335BCPZ symbol pin organization: VS pins are Power, COM pins are Ground/Common, XOUT/YOUT/ZOUT are Analog Outputs, ST is Control, NC pins are No Connect, and EP is Exposed Pad. Verified all 17 terminals now have exactly one matching Pin Group/Section assignment with no duplicated pins across groups.

ADXL335BCPZ Pin Function Groups

Source reviewed: ADXL335 datasheet, “Pin Configuration and Function Descriptions” for the 16-lead LFCSP package.

Grouping rule used: each physical pin is assigned to exactly one functional group, so no pin is duplicated across groups.

Recommended functional groups

Table

Group / Section	Pins	Pin names	Suggested Flux Pin Type	Suggested Pin Group	Notes
Power	14, 15	VS, VS	Power In	Power	Supply voltage pins. These are the main supply pins.
Ground / Common	3, 5, 6, 7	COM, COM, COM, COM	Ground	Ground	Common/return pins. Treat all COM pins as ground/common.
Analog Outputs	8, 10, 12	ZOUT, YOUT, XOUT	Output	Output	Acceleration analog voltage outputs for Z, Y, and X axes.
Control / Self-Test	2	ST	Input	Control	Self-test input pin.
No Connect	1, 4, 9, 11, 13, 16	NC, NC, NC, NC, NC, NC	Not Connected	NC	No-connect pins. Datasheet notes NC pins are not internally connected; they can be tied to COM unless otherwise noted.
Exposed Pad	EP	Exposed Pad	Not Connected or Ground*	Exposed Pad	Datasheet notes the exposed pad is not internally connected, but should be soldered for mechanical integrity. If Flux requires a terminal for it, keep it in its own group so it is not mixed with electrical COM pins.

*For Flux pin typing, I would prefer Not Connected for the exposed pad because it is not internally connected electrically. If your part workflow wants all soldered pads represented as mechanical/ground-like terminals, label it clearly as Exposed Pad rather than grouping it with COM.

Table

Pin	Name	Section	Pin Group	Pin Type	Short description
1	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
2	ST	Control	Control	Input	Self-test input
3	COM	Ground	Ground	Ground	Common ground
4	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
5	COM	Ground	Ground	Ground	Common ground
6	COM	Ground	Ground	Ground	Common ground
7	COM	Ground	Ground	Ground	Common ground
8	ZOUT	Analog Outputs	Output	Output	Z-axis output
9	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
10	YOUT	Analog Outputs	Output	Output	Y-axis output
11	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
12	XOUT	Analog Outputs	Output	Output	X-axis output
13	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
14	VS	Power	Power	Power In	Supply voltage
15	VS	Power	Power	Power In	Supply voltage
16	NC	No Connect	NC	Not Connected	No connect
EP	Exposed Pad	Exposed Pad	Exposed Pad	Not Connected	Mechanical pad

Rationale

VS pins belong together as Power.
COM pins belong together as Ground / Common.
XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT are the three accelerometer analog signal outputs, so they belong together as Analog Outputs.
ST is a unique control input, so it gets its own Control / Self-Test group.
NC pins are explicitly no-connect pins, so they get a No Connect group.
The exposed pad is not internally connected, so it should not be grouped with COM electrically, even though it is soldered for mechanical integrity.
