摘要:
This paper reports on the development of a monolithic capacitive accelerometer array system that has a designed full-scale range of +/- 5 , a bandwidth larger than 10, with a minimum resolution of 5and a minimum bias instability of 700. The resolution and full-scale range of the accelerometers correspond to a dynamic range of 120that is on par with state-of-the-art low-accelerometers. High bandwidth and detectability are achieved by the nano-gram proof mass and relatively stiff folded-flexure transducer design. High dynamic range with input range is enabled by the hourglass-beam, interdigitated tapered comb-finger electrodes, and arrayed accelerometers. The accelerometer array design provides a potential path towards an emerging navigation through high-shock application. [2024-0091]
