A closed loop accelerometer includes apparatus within an associated digital rebalance loop for reducing the presence of low frequency moding noise in the accelerometer output. In one embodiment, the digitized corrective signal is applied to a moving average filter. In a second embodiment, the corrective signal is modulated with a random function and, in a third embodiment, the digitized corrective signal is both randomized and applied to a moving average filter. In each embodiment, the periodic moding noise that results from the analog-to-digital conversion within the rebalance loop is significantly reduced from that observed in prior art systems.
