The basic idea of this paper is to characterize
wireless MEMS capacitive accelerometer sensor based on
their field of applications. The selection of accelerometers
are difficult for certain applications, that demands the
sensor to be mount on rotating platform, higher value of g,
sensitivity, and wide bandwidth of operation. Whenever
higher sensitivity is chosen, the short fall is in the range of g
and the bandwidth of operation. This is a serious issue with
the sensor as far as industrial applications i.e., ball mill and
sag mills are concerned. There is a misconception of using
higher value of g (approximately around 500 g) with lower
sensitivity in ball mill that is justified in this paper.
