MV60 Accelerometer

Overview
Honeywell’s MV60 Accelerometer is a single-axis, in-plane acceleration sensor, housed on a 1.085 inch square circuit board. The MV60 operates on less than 45 mW power, is rugged to 5000 g’s of shock, and features a high bandwidth > 300Hz. 

The MV60 utilizes silicon-based Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology in this high-performance accelerometer offering. Until now, MEMS technology has not crossed the threshold of high performance and has been reserved for lower performing markets. Leveraging over 50 years of inertial sensor and MEMS experience, Honeywell’s new MV60 breaks through this performance constraint to give the user the ability to address the most demanding trade-offs between size, weight, power (SWaP), cost and performance.
