This aint your grandfather's 3-axis accelerometer.
The price is a shocker compared to most things I’ll be featuring, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Available in +/- 25G through 500G scales, for when you really need to measure some brutal acceleration.
Temp sensitivity is a bit of a bummer (-20% response at -40C, +30% response at 125C? Really?) but I was able to compensate for this using a cleverly designed amplifier with a platinum RTD (bonded to the accelerometer cover) as part of the feedback divider, bringing the temp response down under 1% across the entire specified operating range.
