InvenSense unveils first integrated industrial 6-axis MEMS SoC
InvenSense has revealed a family of 6 Industrial MotionTracking solutions including 3-axis gyroscopes and integrated 6-axis gyroscopes and accelerometers based on MEMS technology.
With the introduction of ITG-31N1/N2/N3 and MPU-61N1/N2/N3 devices for industrial markets, InvenSense is now providing the same level of high performance and reliability for these markets, that it is known for in the consumer market.
The firm says its new family of MotionTracking solutions delivers excellent gyroscope noise performance of 0.005°/√Hz and come in 4 x 4mm QFN packages.
"InvenSense has established itself as a market leader in the consumer space largely based on innovative solutions with the lowest power consumption and the industry's smallest form factor. Going forward, InvenSense plans to disrupt the Industrial market with high performance and reliability solutions at compelling cost points," says Ali Foughi, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at InvenSense.
"This family of Industrial products allows InvenSense to diversify into new performance sensitive applications such as navigation, platform stabilisation, robotics, UAVs, power tools, agricultural machinery, and many others," continues Foughi.
InvenSense will preview the family of devices at the 2013 Sensors Expo at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Centre in Rosemont, Illinois on June 5th and 6th, 2013 in booth #601.
The family of Industrial MotionTracking devices will be sampled to select customers in Q3 2013.
