Design and Simulation of MEMS-based Piezoelectric Accelerometer
Veröffentlicht in 2013
The Micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) technology provides us a platform to interface between mechanical and electrical components. In this paper, we have designed MEMS accelerometer based on piezoelectric property, and simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics®. The design, which has PZT kept in the annular diaphragm, provides good sensitivity. When this accelerometer is subjected to stress electrical signals are generated from the crystal linearly to the amount of stress applied. Similarly the simulation has been performed for the designed model for different materials, small variations in the geometry, and good results have been observed. These can be used in ASIC and RF telemetry system for wireless monitoring of industrial equipment.
