STIM210 MEMS GYROSCOPE

3 AXES MODULE

Each axis is factory calibrated for bias, sensitivity and compensated for temperature effects to provide high-accuracy measurements. The unit runs off a single +5V supply and communicates via a RS422 interface. The use of a 32-bit RISCReduced Instruction Set Computer. ARM RISC - Advanced RISC Machine. See also ARM microcontroller provides flexibility in the configuration, like choice of output unit, sampling frequency, LP filter -3dB frequency and RS422 bit-rate and protocol parameters. For more advanced users, STIM210 may be put in Service Mode. In this mode all the configuration parameters can be temporarily or permanently changed by overwriting the current settings in the flash memory. Service Mode also provides the ability to perform single measurements, perform diagnostics and obtain a higher detail in the status byte.

ADVANTAGES

Shock & Vibration Resistant

The STIM 3-Axes MEMSMicroElectroMechanical System. See also Gyroscope Modules perform exceptionally well across many applications due to their very low vibration and shock sensitivity. They are designed to withstand 1500g of shock forces. Due to this extreme shock resistant capability, the gyroscopes are qualified according to high-performance aircraft vibration standards.
Reliability and Robustness

STIM210 (three axes) modules have an MTBF at 70k operating
hours (according to MIL-HDBK 217), which is outperforming
current FOGFiber Optic Gyroscope. Uses the interference of light to detect mechanical rotation. See also systems. Tuning of excitation and detection
frequencies, as well as perfectly balanced vibrational masses,
result in very low vibration and shock sensitivity in any direction.
Multi-Application Support

STIM210 applications are typically found within Industrial,
Aerospace and Defense markets, for various platform
stabilizations, pointing and navigation systems (e.g. antennas,
cameras and gimbals), attitude heading reference systems
(AHRSs), inertial navigation systems (INSs) for UAVs, AUVs,
AGVs, UGVs and ROVs, smart munitions, 3D mapping systems,
range finders, trains, robotics and more.
For many applications STIM210 directly replaces FOGs and
improves system solutions with respect to robustness, reliability,
size, weight, power and cost.
STIM210 can also open new markets, where adequate solutions
previously have not yet been possible to realize.
