Bangalore: Analog Devices (ADI), a provider of semiconductors for signal processing applications has developed the low-power ADXRS450 iMEMS gyroscope with digital output specifically for angular rate (rotational) sensing in harsh environments. This new launch is an attempt by ADI to address the growing demand for more accuracy, stability, and high vibration and shock resistance of MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) motion sensors. According to ADI, this device features an advanced, differential quad-sensor design that enables it to operate accurately under intense shock and vibration conditions. The company claims that no other MEMS gyroscope is able to perform at this level under these conditions. This MEMS gyroscope is effective for diverse applications, such as robotics, industrial instrumentation, avionics and platform stabilization for high speed trains. "Our customers rely on the Analog Devices iMEMS brand for the high performance and reliability they receive from our motion sensing products that combine innovative MEMS sensor design with ADI's leading analog signal conditioning circuitry for the optimum sensing solution," said Mark Martin, Vice President, MEMS and Sensors Technology Group, Analog Devices.
