A three-axis accelerometer subsystem, developed as part of a get-away-special Ga-As crystal growth system for the Space Shuttle, is described. Each axis of this subsystem contains a quartz flexure accelerometer capable of dc measurements, custom-designed measurement circuitry, a programmable microcomputer for measurement control and data reduction, and memory for recording data. The subsystem was flown as a free float experiment aboard the NASA KC-135 microgravity research aircraft, yielding measurements of accelerations during free float at a resolution of 10 micro-g.
