TDK Corporation has announced a new product in the Tronics AXO 300 accelerometers platform. After the launch of AXO315 for avionics applications, AXO305 for land and marine positioning systems, and AXO301 for railway applications and inclination measurement, Tronics extends its portfolio with AXO314, a digital MEMS accelerometer with ±14 g input range for industrial applications operating under shock and vibration.
Empowered by the company’s closed-loop architecture providing linearity and high vibration rejection, AXO314 offers a low-SWaP, digital alternative to tactical-grade quartz accelerometers.
“Among all the applications with high shock and vibration where high performance +/- 14g range accelerometer is needed, inertial navigation and positioning of UAV represents a promising market” explains Pierre-Marie Visse, Senior Technology & Market Analyst, MEMS & Sensing at Yole Group. “Indeed, the revenues of inertial sensors in this sector are $27 million in 2023, and will reach $104 million in 2029, with an impressive 25% CAGR on this forecast period.”
