ADIS16407:  Ten Degrees of Freedom Inertial Sensor

The ADIS16407 iSensor® device is a complete inertial system that includes a tri-axis gyroscope, a tri-axis accelerometer, tri-axis magnetometer and pressure sensor. Each sensor in the ADIS16407 combines industry-leading iMEMS® technology with signal conditioning that optimizes dynamic performance. The factory calibration characterizes each sensor for sensitivity, bias, alignment, and linear acceleration (gyro bias). As a result, each sensor has its own dynamic compensation formulas that provide accurate sensor measurements.

The ADIS16407 provides a simple, cost-effective method for integrating accurate, multiaxis inertial sensing into industrial systems, especially when compared with the complexity and investment associated with discrete designs. All necessary motion testing and calibration are part of the production process at the factory, greatly reducing system integration time. Tight orthogonal alignment simplifies inertial frame alignment in navigation systems. The SPI and register structure provide a simple interface for data collection and configuration control.

The ADIS16407 has a compatible pinout for systems that currently use ADIS1635x, ADIS1636x, and ADIS1640x IMU products. It comes in a module that is approximately 23 mm × 23 mm × 23 mm and has a standard connector interface.
