iNEMO ultra 3-axis accelerometer 3-axis gyroscope in SiP for wearble and IoT
STMicroelectronics developed first iNEMO Ultra product - an always-on, high-performance 6-axis combination accelerometer and gyroscope for designing battery-powered smart sensor systems to be embedded in mobile and wearable devices and innovative objects for the Internet of Things (IoT).
2.5mm x 3.0mm x 0.8mm measuring iNEMO Ultra 6-axis inertial-sensor combo (3-axis accelerometer/3-axis gyroscope) features high noise performance and 20% more energy-efficiency than the best alternative combos in low-power mode, claims ST.
ST explains "This is in part, due to the market’s largest "smart" FIFO (First-In First-Out) memory (8kbytes) — at least 2 times larger than any else available. This flexible memory allows the LSM6DS3 to save and batch more data before waking up the system processor, saving overall system power, too. Moreover, ST has leveraged its robust and mature manufacturing processes for the production of its industry-leading micro-machined accelerometers and gyroscopes, while manufacturing its IC interfaces using CMOS technology. This choice supports trimming of dedicated circuits to better match sensing-element characteristics."
"Our new 6-axis ultra-combo is designed to operate at the lowest power and best noise density in the market and will make Internet-of-Things devices far more efficient and convenient," said Benedetto Vigna, ST Executive Vice President a...
