D52QD2M4IA-A Supports Accelerometer

Hi I would like to ask you whether the D52QD2M4IA-A chip has builtin support of accelerometer or not! Into the datasheet: https://www.thisisant.com/assets/resources/Datasheets/D00001675_D52_Module_Datasheet.v.1.0.pdf it says: "Onboard 3-axis MEMS accelerometer (D52QD2M4IA-A) LIS2DH by ST Microelectronics 2 programmable interrupt pins".
However does this this means that you have to buy the LIS2DH separately and connect it through the interface the module supports or the accelerometer is builtin the chip?

D52QD2M4IA-A has the LIS2DH accelerometer populated on the PCB board and wired to the chip GPIOs.

So there is no need of extra accelerometer chip. If I buy D52QD2M4IA-A I can use the libraries to communicate with built in accelerometer without any other module to install!

Thanx a lot

Hi again,
Is there any sample code to communicate (read) the builtin (LIS2dh) accelerometer data?
