Description
The LY530AL single-axis yaw gyroscope provides a choice of analog or digital absolute angular-rate outputs. LY530AL has a full scale of ±300 °/s and is capable of measuring rates with a -3 dB bandwidth up to 88 Hz, for the analog output, and 1kHz of output data rate for the digital output. Measuring 5 x 5 x 1.5 mm, the 16-pin LGA device also has a power-down pin to maximize overall system efficiency ensuring very low power consumption.
