Analog Devices, Inc. today introduced the fully integrated
ADXC150x series of inertial combo sensors that brings together
best-in-class reliability and accuracy with industry leading shock
and vibration immunity at a reduced footprint. The integration of
up to four degrees of freedom in a single device allows system
designers to reduce the size of the electronic control unit (ECU)
required in today’s automotive safety systems.

Integrated Accelerometer/Gyro Combo
Series from Analog Devices Helps Improve Reliability and Accuracy
of Automotive Safety Systems (Photo: Business Wire)
Minimizing these large error sources is mission critical to
designing more reliable and accurate automotive safety systems,
such as robust Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and rollover
detection. These build on traditional chassis control systems
already in the vehicle, including the anti-lock braking system,
traction control, and yaw control. Current ESC and rollover
detection system designs often involve two or more discrete
accelerometers and gyroscopes, which offer less shock and vibration
immunity while costing more and requiring more board space. The
ADXC150x combo sensor family overcomes the substantial challenges
associated with integrating an automotive-grade gyroscope and
accelerometer in a single package. These innovative combo sensors
integrate up to 4 degrees of freedom (DOF) into a single device,
which not only reduces component count and expensive,
time-consuming custom integration, but also improves inertial
sensing accuracy and reliability. Yaw gyro drift over temperature
is less than 1 deg/s (typical) and the internal temperature sensor
calibrates the output to provide excellent stability across the
whole automotive temperature range (−40oC to 105oC). Driven by
Analog Devices’ commitment to functional safety, the ADXC150x also
features comprehensive electromechanical fail-safe routines and
continuously monitors device health to ensure the integrity of the
data.

Following decades of inertial sensor innovation1, Analog Devices
continues to lead the market with advanced accelerometer and
gyroscope designs that help save lives. The unique ADXC150x
gyroscope with its patented differential Quad-Sensor™ design
effectively rejects linear acceleration, including external
g-forces and vibration. The advanced accelerometer features a low Q
sensor beam design with exceptional noise rejection performance and
a wide dynamic range enabling robust overload signal handling in
the most challenging automotive environments. Two configurations
are initially available: the ADXC1500, which features a dual-axis
accelerometer with yaw rate gyro, and the ADXC1501, which features
a three-axis accelerometer with yaw rate gyro. Both offer SPI
digital output and are available in a 16-lead inverted cavity SOIC
package for robust EMI performance.
