IDG-300
Integrated Dual-Axis Gyroscope
 |
 |
The IDG-300 MEMS gyroscope is an integrated dual-axis angular rate sensor designed for consumer and industrial applications requiring low cost, small size and high performance. The IDG-300 gyro leverages InvenSense’s patented gyro, MEMS and wafer-scale integration technologies to deliver unprecedented cost, size, functionality and manufacturing advantages.
The IDG-300 gyro includes all the integrated electronics required for complete application-ready functionality. Factory trimmed scale factors eliminate the need for external active components and end-user calibration. The IDG-300 gyro is lead-free and Green Compliant.
