STMicroelectronics Introduces The World’s First High-Performance 3-Axis MEMS Gyroscope
The High-Performance 3-Axis MEMS Gyroscope accurately measures angular rates along three orthogonal axes. Combining superior accuracy with high stability and a small size, ST’s 3-axis gyroscope heralds the widespread adoption of realistic-motion user interfaces in all kinds of consumer applications. The sensor provides 360° angular-rate detection for high-precision 3D gesture and motion recognition in mobile phones, game controllers, personal navigation systems and other portable devices. Combined with a 3-axis accelerometer, ST’s newest gyroscope enables the creation of Inertial Measurement Units, devices that track and deliver complete information on the type, rate, and direction of motion of humans, vehicles and other objects. The innovative gyroscope provides two separate outputs for each of the three axes at the same time: a 400dps full-scale value for high accuracy of slow motion and a 1,600dps full-scale value to detect and measure very fast gestures and movements. ST’s 3-axis gyroscope can operate with any supply voltage in the range of 2.7 to 3.6V…
