Measuring Principle
Acceleration sensors operate inaccordance with the piezoelectriccompression principle. Inside thesensor, a spring/mass dampingsystem is formed by a piezo-ceramicdisk and an internal sensor mass.
When introducing vibrations into thissystem, the mass exerts an alternatingforce on the ceramic disk and due tothe piezoelectric effect electric chargesare caused which are proportional toacceleration.
