Gyro Sensor
Gyro sensors also called an angular velocity sensor or angular rate sensor. It can measure and maintain the orientation and angular velocity of an object.
It is more advanced than the accelerometer. As gyro sensors measure the lateral orientation and tilt of the object and accelerometer sensors only measures the linear motion.
As advanced in the technology it will help to manufacture the highly accurate, reliable and miniature devices. Based on the sizes and performance gyro sensors are divided in different types – Ring laser gyroscope, Fiber-optic gyroscope, Fluid gyroscope, and Vibration gyroscope.
Depending on the types of the gyro sensors it has a various features
- High vibration resistance and stability across temperature variations.
- 16-bit resolution with multiple communication interfaces (SPI, CAN, PSI5).
- Compact BGA package with a wide operational temperature range (-40°C to 125°C).
- RoHS-compliant and ASIL D-ready for automotive applications
- Low power consumption with integrated MEMS technology.
- High sensitivity for precise angular velocity detection.
- Robust design for harsh environments, including high shock and vibration resistance.
- Wide frequency response range
Applications of the gyro sensor
