Overview

The ISZ-650 Z-axis integrated MEMS rate gyroscope is designed for high performance game controllers and audio-video remote controllers which require wide dynamic range motion processing, high impact shock resistance, and low cost.  The device can be used as a standalone yaw-rate sensor, or can be combined with the InvenSense IDG-650 X/Y-axis gyroscope, for a complete 3-axis solution where all devices mount in plane with the rest of the system electronics.

The ISZ-650 features a primary output with a full-scale range of ±2,000°/sec, to track the widest range of physical motions, as required by fast-motion gaming; and its secondary output has a full-scale range of ±440°/sec, for tracking slower motions, such as required in pointing applications.

The device leverages InvenSense’s patented and proprietary Nasiri-Fabrication design and manufacturing platform, where the MEMS and CMOS control electronics are bonded and hermetically sealed, allowing direct electrical interconnections and testing at the wafer level.  This approach minimizes parasitic capacitance and improves signal-to-noise ratios versus competitive solutions.

The ISZ-650 includes all the integrated electronics required for complete application-ready functionality. Factory-trimmed scale factors eliminates the need for external active components and end-user calibration. An integrated AutoZero feature helps minimize bias drift over temperature.  The part is available in a compact 4x5x1.2mm package.

This product is RoHS and Green Compliant.
