Description

Technical Field

[0002] The analog single-axis accelerometer is a sensor based on microelectromechanical system (MEMS) technology that can measure the acceleration of an object in a single axis. MEMS accelerometers are usually composed of microelectromechanical sensors and signal processing circuits. Microelectromechanical sensors usually consist of a tiny mass block and a spring, with the mass block located at one end of the spring and the other end fixed to the base. When the accelerometer is subjected to acceleration, the mass block will be displaced relative to the spring, and the displacement is proportional to the magnitude of the acceleration. This displacement signal will be converted into charge. In CV converters, the commonly used charge conversion principle is to achieve voltage conversion by integrating the input charge. Specifically, the input signal is integrated through a capacitor to form a charge. This charge can be output as a voltage signal or used to control the behavior of other electronic devices. In the past, the general way of circuits was to use ASICs to read the charge signal of mems, and the internal circuit was very complicated.
