=
nominal output [counts] on input acceleration acc, Sens is sensor’s nominal sensitivity [counts/g] and
FS is sensor’s full scale measuring range [g] (for example for SCA3000-D01 ±2g → FS = 2 g).
Sensor’s ideal output Output
sensitivity calibration points (the red straight line in Figure 23). Nominal output is calculated by
Equation 8
where Output
sensor’s measured output [counts] at +1 g input acceleration and Output
output at -1 g input acceleration. Possible offset term [counts] is included into nominal output,
because it is not included in to linearity error.
Output noise n
values when the sensor is in 0 g position at room temperature. Average noise/axis is calculated by
Equation 9
where n is sensor’s noise [g] per axis, n
and n
SCA3000 demo-kit design can be used as a reference design for noise measurements, refer to
“SCA3000 DEMO KIT User Manual 8259300”.
Signal bandwidth is measured in a shaker by sweeping the piston movement frequency with
constant amplitude (Figure 24).
Cross-axis sensitivity is sum of the alignment and the inherent sensitivity errors. Cross-axis
sensitivity of one axis is a geometric sum of the sensitivities in two perpendicular directions.
Cross-axis sensitivity [%] of X-axis is given by
