Combined Angular Rate & Acceleration Sensor

Orion offers single axis angular rate and dual axis linear acceleration measurement comprising two discrete MEMS sensing devices with a dedicated control ASIC in a small ceramic LCC surface mount package.

Developed specifically to satisfy the high performance safety critical demands of the automotive domain Orion applications include: Electronic Stability Control, Roll Detection, Vehicle Dynamics Measurement and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).

Enabling safety integrity level ASIL-D (ISO26262) when appropriately installed in a host system and AEC Q100 tested, Orion offers the highest levels of reliability in the most stringent of automotive applications.

With proven and robust MEMS vibrating ring gyro and dual-axis accelerometer technology in a small package size of just 10.4x6.0x2.2 mm Orion features excellent bias over temperature of
1.75°/s, 30mg, unrivalled scale factor performance and a low power consumption of just 8 mA from a 3.3 V supply.

Orion offers two package styles: the CMS300 (flat) and the CMS390 (orthogonal) and is available in a number of user-configurable dynamic ranges and bandwidths. Evaluation boards for both parts are available to order.
