Pre-shaped microbeams, curved or inclined, are widely used in MEMS for their interesting stiffness properties. These mechanisms allow a wide range of positive and negative stiffness tuning in their ...

High-g accelerometers serve as critical components in real-time monitoring systems for shock vibration analysis of blast fuzes in both penetrating and hypersonic weapon applications. While ...

Mouser has announced it is stocking Murata Electronics’ SCH16T-K10 6-DOF gyroscope and accelerometer. The SCH16T-K10 is a combined gyroscope and accelerometer. The six degrees of freedom IMU (inertial ...

Accelerometers turn motion into measurable signals. From tilt and vibration to g-forces, they underpin countless designs. In this “Fun with Fundamentals” entry, we demystify their operation and take a ...
