Meggitt Sensing Systems (San Juan Capistrano, CA), a Meggitt group division, has introduced the Endevco® model 71M series, a family of rugged, undamped subminiature surface mountable piezo resistive accelerometers, designed to support a variety of high-g shock measurement requirements. With available g ranges of 2K, 6K, 20K and 60K, design of the Endevco® model 71M series features a patented, monolithic, four-active arm bridge circuit design incorporating the use of Meggitt’s own proprietary sensing element, machined in-house from a single piece of silicon. The low mass, small size, and unique construction of the MEMS sensing element allows for high resonance frequency, low output impedance, and zero damping for minimal phase shift over its useful frequency range.
