Abstract

μAiming at the demand of missile fuse and other weapons systems, a high-g piezoresistive accelerometer with two terminal fixed beam-mass structure which can measure in-plane acceleration was designed. The design and simulation were also performed using Matlab and ANSYS. The simulation results show that the sensitivity of the accelerometer of sensitive-axis is 0.1101μV/g, and the transverse sensitivity of accelerometer is eliminated effectively. The key parameters such as impact over-loading signal and sensitivity of in-plane accelerometer were tested by Master hammer and Hopkinson bar. The test results showed that the sensor can work with the impact acceleration up to 117,395.95 g and the sensitivity of the accelerometer is 0.1028μV/g.
