Abstract
Implementations of an accelerometer component may include: a first Z proof mass rotatable about a first axis and coupled to an anchor, the first Z proof mass including a first plurality of electrodes. Implementations may include a second Z proof mass rotatable about the first axis and coupled to the anchor, the second Z proof mass including a second plurality of electrodes. An X-axis accelerometer subcomponent may be located within a perimeter of the first Z proof mass, and a Y-axis accelerometer subcomponent may be located within a perimeter of the second Z proof mass. The first plurality of electrodes and the second plurality of electrodes may be symmetrical about each of the first axis, a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, a third axis diagonal to the first axis and second axis, and a fourth axis diagonal to the first axis and second axis.
