Precision inertial measurement units (IMUs) from Analog Devices are now available from Mouser Electronics. The ADIS16507 IMUs are designed to simplify the integration of multi-axis inertial sensing into industrial systems as well as IoT applications, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), smart agriculture and autonomous vehicles. The IMUs are also suitable for virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) applications.
The 25mm x 15mm x 5mm IMU has six degrees of freedom (DoF) sensing using a MEMS-based, triple-axis gyroscope and triple-axis accelerometer. It is tested and factory calibrated for bias, alignment, sensitivity and linear acceleration for accurate measurements to characterise motion in a set of conditions using dynamic compensation formulae.The IMU is available with dynamic ranges of ±125, ±500, or ±2,000°/s. Orthogonal alignment simplifies inertial frame alignment in navigation systems and a serial peripheral interface (SPI) and register structure provide an interface for data collection and configuration control
