Abstract
Pendulum accelerometers are complex sensors that combine a very specific structural design with a very precise electronic system. This work proposes a modular prototype to assist the reproduction of a classic pendulum accelerometer, which allows the studying and development of these sensors. The platform was designed to allow integration tests, mechanical and electronic examination, and individual validation of each of the sensor's parts. The prototype built allows easy replacement of the mechanical elements, as well as completely modular testing of the electronics. Results of the platform show that the mechanical studies are effective using the method and that addressing each electronic part individually allows for easier solutions to the problem.
