Full Description

Scope

This specification defines the requirements and test procedures for a digital accelerometer which utilizes a linear, single-axis, nongyroscopic acceleration sensor with a permanent magnet torquer (forcer) operated in a [ternary pulse mode, pulse-width modulation mode, analog mode with voltage to frequency converter, ]. The electronics are considered to be part of the accelerometer which produces a digital output proportional to sensed velocity changes. The digital accelerometer is hereafter referred to as the accelerometer. With appropriate modifications, this specification may also be applied to force balance nonpendulous accelerometers.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Superseded.Superseded by IEEE 1293-1998. A guide for the preparation of a digital accelerometer specification and test procedure is provided. It is intended to provide common terminology and practice for manufacturers and users. The accelerometer considered utilizes a linear, single-axis, nongyroscopic accelerometer sensor with a permanent magnet torquer. The torquing electronics are considered part of the accelerometer. General design, performance, environmental, and reliability requirements are covered. Information on classification of tests, acceptance tests, qualification tests, reliability tests, standard test conditions, test equipment, test methods, and data submittal is given.
