Systron Donner Automotive Inertial Measurement Unit

By Design World Staff | March 25, 2008



CONCORD, Calif., ? Ideal not only for active-safety systems, but virtually all vehicular systems with require a superior measurement range, reliability and guaranteed accuracy, the Systron Donner Automotive Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) can simultaneously detect both angular-rate and acceleration along multiple axes.

Packaged in a rugged housing no bigger than a deck of cards, the Systron Donner Automotive IMU includes solid-state MEMS gyroscopes, accelerometers, a CAN interface, power conditioning, and microcontroller, all configured to meet the unique sensing and packaging requirements of any OEM or Tier 1 supplier. It easily out-performs rival units, since it harnesses the power of the company’s patented
MicroGyro®, the same technology that’s proven in over 40 million vehicles on the road today.


With its ability to provide fully-compensated digital data, the IMU can take the place of many othersensors throughout a vehicle, reducing complexity and cost. And because it contains the Systron Donner Automotive MicroGyro®, it offers superior precision over an unprecedented measurement range and includes the exclusive Continuous Built-In Test™ for true continuous monitoring of sensor health and
continuous rate sensing.


Other features include:
    • Guaranteed ±300 dps range, factory calibrated and fully
compensated
    • Performs in under-hood installations guaranteed up to 125°C
    • Ideal for ESC, but also lane-keeping, rollover, obstacle detection,
event monitoring and
    other applications.
