概述
The Dytran 7600B1 is a high precision variable capacitance (VC) accelerometer, designed to be used as a drop-in replacement for piezoresistive units in new or existing zero-to-medium frequency instrumentation applications.
压电式加速度传感器又称压电加速度计。它也属于惯性式传感器。压电式加速度传感器的原理是利用压电陶瓷或石英晶体的压电效应，在加速度计受振时，质量块加在压电元件上的力也随之变化。当被测振动频率远低于加速度计的固有频率时，则力的变化与被测加速度成正比。
Available with a 5g range, the Dytran model 7600B1 incorporates a MEMS capacitive sensing element and an advanced ASIC to simulate piezoresistive bridge operation, as well as an integrated VC accelerometer chip with high drive, low impedance buffering. Units respond to both DC and AC acceleration. On-board regulation minimizes supply voltage variation effects, making them relatively insensitive to temperature changes and thermal gradients. Sensors are hermetically sealed for reliable operation in high humidity and dirty environments, and feature a custom integrated circuit amplifier and differential output stages, with a 4-pin M4.5 x 0.35 radial connector, and easy mounting via two 4-40 screws.
电容式加速度传感器是基于电容原理的极距变化型的电容传感器。电容式加速度传感器/电容式加速度计是对比较通用的加速度传感器。在某些领域无可替代，如安全气囊，手机移动设备等。电容式加速度传感器/电容式加速度计采用了微机电系统（MEMS）工艺，在大量生产时变得经济，从而保证了较低的成本。
The Dytran model 7600B1 accelerometer uses the same power supply as piezoresistive and strain gage sensors, allowing them to operate as stand-alone differential output accelerometers or in place of piezoresistive bridge-type accelerometers.
