Title
Design of a three-axis high-g piezoresistive accelerometer
Abstract
This paper presents design of a high-g 8-beam piezoresistive micro-accelerometer. Based on mechanics of materials and vibration theory, an analytical model of symmetric beam-mass structure is established to obtain the structural parameters of the micro-accelerometer. Then, finite element method in ANSYS is used to make a 3-dimensional analysis, and results obtained are in good agreement with those from the analytical model. In the end, piezo-resistors of the micro-accelerometer are laid out and sensitivity is discussed.
