A MEMS device including a first proof mass, a first magnetized magnetic material disposed partially on a surface of the first proof mass, a first spring anchored to a substrate to support the first proof mass, and a first sensing element coupled to the first proof mass and operable to sense the motion of the first proof mass caused by an ambient acceleration. The MEMS device further includes a second sensing element coupled to the first proof mass and operable to sense the motion of the first proof mass caused by an ambient magnetic field.
