Abstract
The paper is based on the vibration measurement using a low-cost MEMS accelerometer kit. The MEMS accelerometer kit is developed using an open-source literature. The main components of the kit are ADXL 355 MEMS accelerometer, microcontroller, SD card and the batteries. The vibration measurement test on the electrical cooler is performed using the developed kit. It measures the acceleration in three axes x, y and z. The measured vibration response is validated with the phyphox application available for the smartphone with inbuilt accelerometer. The time domain responses acquired from both MEMS acceleration kit and the smartphone are analyzed using fast Fourier transform (FFT). The results are in good agreement. The developed kit can be used for measuring vibrations in the various applications. The cost of the kit is significantly lower than the conventional piezoelectric accelerometer.
