Memsic unique thermal technology use heated gas molecules to detect acceleration and is the fundamental principle behind our accelerometer IC products. This technology offers several advantages over the solid proof-mass structure, including:
- No measurable resonance (immunity to vibration)
- Virtually indestructible (50,000g shock tolerance)
- No stiction
- No detectable hysteresis
- Excellent zero-g offset stablity
- Sensor & electronics integrated onto monolithic IC
- Rugged accelerometer modules with a selection of configurations and performance levels provide turnkey solutions for a wide variety of demanding applications
