DESCRIPTION
The Model 3052 is a piezoresistive silicon accelerometer with
integral temperature compensation. It is packaged on a ceramic
substrate with an epoxy sealed ceramic cover and is designed for
adhesive mounting.
The accelerometer consists of a micro machined silicon
mass suspended by multiple beams from a silicon frame.
Piezoresistors located in the beams change their resistance as the
motion of the suspended mass changes the strain in the beams.
Silicon caps on the top and bottom of the device are added to
provide over-range stops. This design provides for a very low
profile, high shock resistance, durability and built-in damping
over a wide usable bandwidth. Each sensor is individually
serialized.
For an accelerometer with a mounting bracket which can be

1. Actual test data for this parameter is included on the calibration sheet
included with each sensor. A sample of this calibration sheet is shown as

The useful frequency range is defined as the range of frequencies over
which the device sensitivity is within ±5% of the DC value.
Positive voltage change for positive acceleration; negative voltage
change for negative acceleration.
For sensors having resonant frequency greater than 5 kHz, the
calibration data sheet will indicate “>5 kHz”. In addition, the damping
ratio will indicate N/A.

Best Fit Straight Line. For full scale ranges of 10g or less, the maximum
non-linearity is ±2%.
Compensated temperature range: 0°C to +50°C in reference to 25°C.
Prevents increase of TC-Span and sensitivity decrease due to output
loading.
400g for ±2g, ±5g and ±10g versions, 20X or 2000g, whichever is
lower, for other versions.
