Model 832 Accelerometer
Triaxial Piezoelectric Accelerometer
<4µA Current Consumption
Full Signal and Power Conditioning
Circuit Board Mountable
The Model 832
is a low cost, board
mountable triaxial accelerometer. Featuring
stable piezo-ceramic crystals, the
accelerometer incorporates full power and
signal conditioning with a maximum current
consumption of 4 micro-amps. The model 832
is available in ±25g to ±500g ranges and
provides a flat frequency response up to
2kHz. The model 832M1 provides an
extended frequency range to 6kHz.
