Description
The L3G4200D is a low-power three-axis
gyroscope providing three different user
selectable full scales (±250/±500/±2000 dps).
It includes a sensing element and an IC interface
able to provide the detected angular rate to the
external world through a digital interface
(I²C/SPI).
The sensing element is manufactured using
specialized micromachining processes, while the
IC interface is realized using a CMOS technology
that allows designing a dedicated circuit which is
trimmed to better match the sensing element
characteristics.
The L3G4200D is available in a plastic land grid
array (LGA) package and provides excellent
temperature stability and high resolution over an
extend operating temperature range (-40 °C to
+85 °C).
