-3dB, DC coupled sensor
Non-linearity is the deviation from a best fit straight line at full scale. Transverse sensitivity is error measured in the primary axis output created
by forces induced in the orthogonal axis. Transverse sensitivity error is primarily due to the effects of misalignment. Zero g drift is specified as the
typical change in 0 g level from its initial value at +25C to its worst case value at Tmin or Tmax. Specifications subject to change without notice.
