PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
These high-performance silicon micromachined linear accelerometers and
inclinometers consist of a sensor element and an ASIC packaged in a
5x5x1.2mm Dual Flat No-lead (DFN). The sensor element is fabricated from
single-crystal silicon with proprietary Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE)
processes, and is protected from the environment by a hermetically-sealed
silicon cap at the wafer level.
The
KXR94
series is designed to provide a high signal-to-noise ratio with
integrated temperature compensation that provides excellent performance
over temperature. These sensors can accept supply voltages between 2.5V
and 5.25V. Sensitivity is factory programmable allowing customization for
applications requiring from ±1.0g to ±4.0g ranges.
user-definable.
The sensor element functions on the principle of differential capacitance.
Acceleration causes displacement of a silicon structure resulting in a
change in capacitance.
An ASIC, using a standard CMOS manufacturing
process, detects and transforms changes in capacitance into an analog out-
put voltage, which is proportional to acceleration. The sense element de-
sign utilizes common mode cancellation to decrease errors from process
variation and environmental stress.
Available in analog and multiplexed
analog outputs and serial peripheral interface (SPI).
