Vibration sensing options

All accelerometers are capable of measuring vibration. According to Webster's Dictionary, "to vibrate" means "to move or to cause to move back and forth rapidly."  Selection criteria for a paricular application will normally fall into two separate categories: function and performance.  Starting with function, here are some simple examples.

ADXL001: 1-Axis, +/-70/250/500g range, 22kHz, Analog output

ADIS16220: 1-Axis, +/-70g range, 22kHz, Digital output, capture buffer, 100kSPS

ADIS16223: 3-Axis, +/-70g range, 22kHz, Digital output, capture buffer, 72.9kSPS

ADIS16227: 3-Axis, +/-70g range, 22kHz, Digital output, capture buffer, FFT processing, 100kSPS

ADIS16228: 3-Axis, +/-18g range, 5kHz, Digital output, capture buffer, FFT processing, 20kSPS, Low-noise
