Nominal sensitivity in V/m/s**2 is
To translate the Sensor Output Voltage Level and Output Type from a GeoSIG calibration sheet to Full Scale Voltage shown below, know that the Sensor Output Voltage Level is the maximum voltage for the acceleration range or clip level from a single output.
If the sensor has, for example, a single-ended (positive) output and an Output Voltage Level of 2.5V, a positive maximum acceleration would generate +2.5V. Likewise, the maximum negative acceleration would generate -2.5V. Therefore,
If the sensor has differential (a positive and negative) output and an Output Voltage Level of 2.5V, a positive maximum acceleration would generate +2.5V from the positive output and -2.5V from the negative output for a sum of +5V. Likewise, the maximum negative acceleration would generate -5V from the sum of the positive and negative outputs. Therefore,
