Abstract :
Electronic sensing circuitry and micro-electromechanical sense elements can be integrated to produce inertial instruments for applications unheard of a few years ago. This paper describes the Sandia M3EMS fabrication process, inertial instruments that have been fabricated, and the results of initial characterization tests of micro-machined accelerometers
