Analog Devices’ High Performance ADXRS800 Sensor

Published:2011/10/17 22:11:00 Author:Amy From:SeekIC

Analog Devices’ angular rate sensor ADXRS800 adopts an internal, continuous self-test architecture. The integrity of the electromechanical system is checked by applying a high frequency electrostatic force to the sense structure to generate a rate signal that can be differentiated from the baseband rate data and internally analyzed. The device is designed for automotive electronic stability control, vehicle rollover detection, and other high performance applications. ADXRS800 features high performance and SPI digital output, which can be operated stably in shock and vibration environment.

The ADXRS800 is capable of sensing an angular rate of up to ±300°/sec. Angular rate data is presented as a 16-bit word, as part of a 32-bit SPI message.

The ADXRS800 is available in a cavity plastic SOIC-16 and an SMT-compatible vertical mount package and is capable of operating across both a wide voltage range (3.3 V to 5 V) and temperature range (−40°C to 105°C).

In addition, the device has the features of excellent null offset stability over temperature, high vibration rejection over a wide frequency range, 2000 g powered shock survivability, SPI digital output with 16-bit data-word, etc.
