Signal Processing Impacts of ICP Accelerometer Limit Violations

November 30 2023, 00:10
In this white paper, Dr. Stephen Hambric uses basic piezoelectric sensor theory to explain what happens to your measurement when you use and exceed the amplitude and frequency limits of an accelerometer with built-in electronics, known as an ICP® or IEPE accelerometer. Learn more about components that determine usable linear ranges, and how to avoid common stumbling blocks in signal processing to ensure accurate data analysis.

Topics Include:
- Piezoelectric sensor operating principles
- How ICP-powered accelerometers measure fluctuating vibrations
- What determines the lower and upper limits of linear response, both in amplitude and frequency
- The effects of violating those limits on response frequency spectra, using signal processing theory and examples.
