MODEL 4602 ACCELEROMETERSPECIFICATIONS

MEMS DC Accelerometer
Ultra-Stable, DC Response
Exceptional Thermal Performance<2.0% Total Error Band
<0.1% Linearity Accuracy

The Model 4602 is an ultra-stable MEMS DC
accelerometer with exceptional performance over a fulloperating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. The
accelerometers are available in ranges from ±2 to ±200gwith a wide bandwidth from DC to 2700Hz. The model
4602 accelerometers incorporate gas damped variablecapacitance MEMS sensing element with integral overrange stops for high-g shock protection. Theaccelerometers are designed for 4 to 30Vdc excitation
voltage and include a self-test option.
For a triaxial version, TE Connectivity also offers
the model 4630 accelerometer.
