TDK Corporation has announced a new member of the Tronics AXO300 accelerometer platform. Following the successful launch of the AXO315 for avionics applications, the AXO305 for land and marine positioning systems, and the AXO301 for railway applications and inclination measurement, Tronics extends its portfolio with the AXO314, a high-performance digital MEMS accelerometer with ±14g input range for industrial applications operating under shock and vibration.
Empowered by the company’s industry-unique closed-loop architecture that provides excellent linearity and high vibration rejection, the AXO314 offers a low-SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power), digital, and cost-effective alternative to bulky and expensive tactical-grade quartz accelerometers.
With its 1-year composite bias repeatability of 1mg and its bias instability of 4μg, the AXO314 brings a robust, miniature, and precise acceleration sensing solution to dynamic systems exposed to harsh environments and requiring a high level of stability and reliability.
The AXO314 is not classified under dual-use export control, and it complies with REACH and RoHS standards. Like all products from the company’s high performance MEMS inertial sensors portfolio, AXO314 accelerometers are factory-calibrated to provide a highly accurate output over its temperature range. Raw data output can be also selected to enable customer-specific compensation strategies.
