Zusammenfassung:In some examples, an accelerometer system includes a first excitation ring comprising: a first housing; and a first cover removably attached to the first housing, wherein the first housing and the first cover define a first recess. The accelerometer system also includes a second excitation ring comprising: a second housing; and a second cover removably attached to the second housing, wherein the second housing and the second cover define a second recess. The accelerometer system also includes a proof mass assembly; and processing circuitry located within one or both of the first recess and the second recess, wherein the first excitation ring and the second excitation ring shield the processing circuitry from harmful levels of radiation existing outside of the accelerometer system, and wherein the processing circuitry is configured to maintain a proof mass of the proof mass assembly in a null position.
