MEMS Gyroscope:
Introduction: MEMS Gyroscope measures or maintains
orientation, based on the principles of angular momentum.
A self-tuned resonator in the drive axis and a micro-g sensor
in the sensing axis together form a Gyroscope.
Key Specifications:
Measurement range: This parameter specifies the
maximum angular speed with which the sensor can measure,
and is typically in degrees per second (°/sec).
Number of sensing axes: Gyroscope is available that
measure angular rotation in one, two, or three axes. Multi-axis
sensing gyros have multiple single-axis gyros oriented orthogonal
to one another. Vibrating structure gyroscopes are usually
single-axis (yaw) gyros or dual-axis gyros, and rotary and
optical gyroscope systems typically measure rotation in
three axes.
Shock Survivability: In systems where both linear
acceleration and angular rotation rate are measured, it
is important to know how much force the gyroscope can withstand
before failing. Fortunately gyroscopes are very robust,
and can withstand a very large shock (over a very short
duration) without breaking. This is typically measured in
g's (1g = earth's acceleration due to gravity), and occasionally
the time with which the maximum g-force can be applied before
the unit fails is also given.
Bandwidth: The bandwidth of a gyroscope typically
measures how many measurements can be made per second. Thus
the gyroscope bandwidth is usually quoted in Hz.
Angular Random Walk (ARW): This is a measure of gyro
noise and has units of deg/hour1/2 or deg/sec1/2. It can
be thought of as the variation (or standard deviation),
due to noise, of the result of integrating the output of
a stationary gyro over time. So, for example, consider a
gyro with an ARW of 1°/sec1/2 being integrated many
times to derive an angular position measurement: For a stationary
gyro, the ideal result - and also the average result - will
be zero. But the longer the integration time, the greater
will be the spread of the results away from the ideal zero.
Being proportional to the square root of the integration
time, this spread would be 1° after 1 second and 10°
after 100 seconds.
Scale factor (SF): is the ratio between the output
and input signals in the linear regime of measurements.
For rate gyroscopes with analog voltage output, SF is often
expressed in V/(deg/s) or V/(deg/hour).
Angular/Rotary Axis: Angular axes may be referred
to as yaw, pitch, and roll.
Operating Temperature: The temperature ranges over
which devices must operate.
Package: Package style, terminal style, number of
terminals, etc.,
