Complete inertial system consists of a triaxial gyroscope and triaxial accelerometer

Analog Devices' ADIS16445 iSensor is now available from Mouser stock. The device is designed as a complete inertial system that consists of a triaxial gyroscope and a triaxial accelerometer for applications such as platform stabilization and control, navigation and robotics. Each sensor in the ADIS16445 integrates industry-leading iMEMS technology with signal conditioning that optimizes dynamic performance. The factory calibration measures each sensor for sensitivity, bias, alignment, and linear acceleration (gyroscope bias). As a result, each sensor has its own dynamic compensation formulas that provide accurate sensor measurements. Using the ADIS16445, designers have a simple, cost-effective method for integrating accurate, multi-axis inertial sensing into industrial systems. Tight orthogonal alignment simplifies inertial frame alignment in navigation systems. The SPI and register structures provide a simple interface for data collection and configuration control.
