The SEXTANT Avionic company possesses a large spectrum of accelerometers for the different applications of Navigation. Since 1980, a constant concern about their adequacy to meet the need has led SEXTANT Avionic to develop micro-machined captors and accelerometers in particular. Many types of materials have been used and we expose the reasons for the choice of silicon in accelerometers destined for AHRS. The architecture of the accelerometer, the technologies used, and the functional modes are described. Then the actual performances of the different types of silicon accelerometers are explained, as well as their domain of application. In conclusion, perspectives of a longer term are given.
