AI Overview
Custom MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) accelerometer sensing elements are micro-machined silicon structures—typically using capacitive or piezoresistive technology—that detect acceleration by measuring the deflection of a proof mass
. These devices are designed for specific applications, ranging from high-sensitivity, low-g vibration monitoring to high-g shock detection.
Core Components & Working Principle
- Proof Mass : A suspended silicon mass moves when acceleration acts on the sensor.
