What is the output of an accelerometer?

Accelerometers typically fall into two categories - producing either 10 mV/g or 100 mV/g. The frequency of the AC output voltage will match the frequency of the vibrations. The output level will be proportional to the amplitude of the vibrations.

Is an accelerometer input or output?

Accelerometer Sensitivity:

The ratio of change in acceleration (input) to change in the output signal.

What does an accelerometer measure?

An accelerometer is a device that measures the vibration, or acceleration of motion of a structure.
