You need to run some vibrations tests and your lab has an accelerometer (2nd order system) that
has a natural frequency (resonance) at 3,000 Hz and damping ratio of 0.05. The vibrations you
wish to measure are in the range of 100 - 1,200 Hz.
a. What are the amplitude error (in %) and phase shift (in degrees) expected at the upper
end of the vibration frequency range (1,200 Hz)?
b. What is the maximum frequency that you can measure to have no more than 1% error in
the amplitude of the reading?
c. Is this a suitable choice of accelerometer for this measurement? Why or why not?

Piezoresistive MEMS Accelerometer
Consider the following MEMS Piezoresistive accelerometer:
Piezoresistors
Vibration
Cantilever
Substrate
Base
Proof mass
The density, modulus and dimensions of the beam and the proof mass are known. The equivalent mechanical damping, , of the beam has been determined experimentally as a function of
the velocity of the proof mass.
A piezoresistive material mounted to the beam changes resistance as the beam bends. The resistance of the piezoresistor is proportionally related to the position of the proof mass by the
piezoresistive constant, p, such that: R = py
The change in resistance is measured as an output voltage, Vo, using a simplified circuit with a constant current supply.
Simplified Circuit:
i,(1
The behavior of the system during operation can be modeled with the supply current as a constant system parameter. The input to the system is the displacement of the base, and the
output is the voltage, vo.
