Model 4000 Accelerometer
Piezoresistive MEMS Accelerometer
Signal Conditioned Output
Temperature Calibrated
Low Cost, Light Weight
DESCRIPTION
The Model 4000
is an economical signal
conditioned accelerometer with integral
temperature compensation. The accelerometer
incorporates a 2nd generation piezoresistive
MEMS sensor providing outstanding performance.
The accelerometer is packaged in a light weight
thermoplastic housing ideal for transportation and
instrumentation testing. The signal conditioned
output incorporates a 2.5V reference that offers
the user a differential or single-ended output.
