MEMS vibration velocity sensor VSI-101

Tiny form-factor MEMS sensors are not new to industry and are typically associated with high volume and lowcost applications, such as automotive airbags or auto-display rotation on mobile phones. They serve their purpose well and carry out basic functionality throughout their lifecycle. They are not however, well suited for use in high performance and heavy use vibration measurements usually associated with Condition Based Maintenance,Predictive Maintenance, Asset Health Monitoring, and Structural Health Monitoring. Until now. We are entering the world of MEMS 2.0. Advances in semiconductor processing technology have led to the creation of highly advanced MEMS based sensors. These utilize materials that are perfectly suited to more extreme measurements normally associated with, and even going beyond, moving coil and piezo stack-based sensors.
