The Model 3028 is a silicon MEMS accelerometer in aWheatstone bridge configuration. It is packaged on aceramic substrate with a metal bracket which can be used
to bolt the sensor to the mounting location. The
accelerometer is offered in ranges from ±2g to ±200g range
and provides a flat frequency response to minimum 2000Hz.
The silicon MEMS sensor is gas damped and incorporates
over-range stops for high-g shock protection.
