Abstract
In some examples, the disclosure describes an accelerometer including a proof mass, and a housing enclosing the proof mass. The accelerometer includes a cold temperature sink defining a condensing surface. In some examples, the disclosure describes a technique for making an accelerometer. The example technique includes forming a cold temperature sink defining a condensing surface, and enclosing a proof mass in the housing. The condensing surface is configured to promote at least one of condensation or ice formation in an interior of the housing. The condensing surface is spaced from the proof mass to divert at least one of condensate or ice away from the proof mass.
