Comparision of Different Acceleration Sensors
| Classify | The piezoelectric acceleration sensor | Piezoresistive acceleration sensor | Capacitive acceleration sensor | Servo acceleration sensor |
| Feature | Small volume, light weight, wide working frequency band
|
Small volume, low power consumption, etc | Structure is simple, cheap, high sensitivity, zero hysteresis, vacuum compatible, overload ability, good dynamic corresponding characteristic and to the harsh conditions such as high temperature, radiation, strong adaptability | Good dynamic performance, large dynamic range and good linearity |
| Application | Auto brake start testing, instrumentation, earthquake detection alarm system, and engineering vibration, geological exploration, railways, Bridges, vibration test and analysis of the dam | Widely used in automobile collision experiment, testing instruments, equipment vibration monitoring and other fields | In the airbag, mobile devices, and other fields | Widely used in inertial navigation and inertial guidance systems, in the vibration of the high precision measurement and calibration are applied |
