GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADXRS401 is a functionally complete and low cost angular
rate sensor (gyroscope), integrated with all of the required
electronics on one chip. It is manufactured using Analog
Devices’ surface-micromachining technique, the same high
volume BIMOS process used for high reliability automotive
airbag accelerometers. It is available in a 7 mm × 7 mm × 3 mm
BGA surface-mount package.
The output signal, RATEOUT (1B, 2A), is a voltage proportional
to angular rate about the axis normal to the top surface of the
package (see Figure 2). A single external resistor can be used to
lower the scale factor. An external capacitor is used to set the
bandwidth. Other external capacitors are required for operation
(see Figure 1).
A precision reference and a temperature output are also
provided for compensation techniques. Two digital self-test
inputs electromechanically excite the sensor to test proper
operation of both sensors and the signal conditioning circuits.
