L3GD20 MEMS motion sensor: three-axis digital output gyroscope Datasheet - production data Applications Gaming and virtual reality input devices Motion control with MMI (man-machine interface) GPS navigation systems Appliances and robotics LGA-16 (4x4x1 mm) Description The L3GD20 is a low-power three-axis angular Features rate sensor. Three selectable full scales (250/500/2000 It includes a sensing element and an IC interface dps) capable of providing the measured angular rate to 2 I C/SPI digital output interface the external world through a digital interface 2 16 bit-rate value data output (I C/SPI). 8-bit temperature data output The sensing element is manufactured using a dedicated micro-machining process developed by Two digital output lines (interrupt and data STMicroelectronics to produce inertial sensors ready) and actuators on silicon wafers. Integrated low- and high-pass filters with user- selectable bandwidth The IC interface is manufactured using a CMOS process that allows a high level of integration to Wide supply voltage: 2.4 V to 3.6 V design a dedicated circuit which is trimmed to Low voltage-compatible IOs (1.8 V) better match the sensing element characteristics. Embedded power-down and sleep mode The L3GD20 has a full scale of 250/500/ 2000 dps and is capable of measuring rates with a Embedded temperature sensor user-selectable bandwidth. Embedded FIFO The L3GD20 is available in a plastic land grid High shock survivability array (LGA) package and can operate within a Extended operating temperature range (-40 C temperature range of -40 C to +85 C. to +85 C) ECOPACK RoHS and Green compliant Table 1.
