ADIS16487
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADIS16487 is a complete inertial system that includes a
triaxis gyroscope and a triaxis accelerometer. Each inertial sensor
in the ADIS16487 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 (gyroscope bias). As a
result, each sensor has its own dynamic compensation formulas that
provide accurate sensor measurements.
The ADIS16487 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.
For interests requiring evidence of avionics or safety critical
applicability, this device supports certification to DO-178C/
DO-254 DAL B within systems, which have completed either
U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or European
Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) audits, and can under specific
commercial arrangements be supported by preassessment and
audit acceptance artifacts.
The ADIS16487 uses the same footprint and connector system as
the
ADIS16375, ADIS16480, ADIS16485,
and
ADIS16488A,
which
greatly simplifies the upgrade process. The ADIS16487 is packaged
in a module that is approximately 47 mm × 44 mm × 14 mm
and includes a standard connector interface.
