Inertial Aerosystems - low cost angular rate sensors

Inertial Aerosystems has announced the availability of a new range of low cost MEMS single axis angular rate sensors on a small P.C. board. Designated the LCG50 and manufactured by US based Systron Donner, the range consists of 3 models giving full scale ranges of 100 degrees per second, 250 degrees per second and 500 degrees per second. The sensor is a complete unit and requires only 5V DC power to deliver a high DC output voltage proportional to rate with very low current draw. The unit has fast start up and a temperature sensor output for modeling purposes. These innovative products are ideal for embedded applications where mounting versatility is required in tough environments.
