In recent years, the development of inertial measurement unit (IMU) technology has provided some interesting solutions for motion sensors. This has enabled us to use these sensors in more applications that require a greater level of precision and control. This article will discuss the application field and working principle behind one such developed ‘inertial measurement unit’, the ADIS16480BMLZ.

IMU technology is the combination of accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers that are used for precision sensing for motion and orientation. The ADIS16480BMLZ takes this technology further by integrating the 3-axis gyroscopes, accelerometers, barometric pressure sensor and digital temperature sensor into one device. This enables the device to measure the 3-axis linear accelerations, 3-axis angular rates, and atmospheric pressure as well as temperature.

Its application field is vast. This technology is used in many market sectors, such as mobile robotics, autonomous vehicles, drones, and autonomous navigation solutions. It provides a platform for motion control research and development and can be used for navigation, airborne guidance, inertial systems integration, and mechanical systems testing.

At its most basic level, the ADIS16480BMLZ measure linear accelerations and angular rates in order to work out the change in the orientation of the device relative to its starting position. It does this by calculating the rate of change of the angular rates. This is done by first measuring the linear accelerations from the accelerometers, integrating them to find the angular position at a particular time and taking the difference between this and the angular position at the last measurement, to calculate the rate of change. The gyroscopes measure the actual angular rate, which is then integrated to find the angular position of the device.

The device also calculates the pressure from the barometric pressure sensor, as well as temperature from the digital temperature sensor. This data is used to find the altitude, as well as air density and temperature. This allows the device to anticipate air pressure and temperature changes at different altitudes and adapt its measurements accordingly.

In addition to the 3-axis gyroscopes, accelerometers, barometric pressure sensor and digital temperature sensor, the ADIS16480BMLZ also includes an onboard microcontroller, which enables the user to write custom code for the IMU. This custom code allows for program written features such as attitude determination, low-pass filtering, and calibration, which are necessary for some applications.

The ADIS16480BMLZ has an excellent power efficiency, consuming as little as 1mA during data acquisition. It includes various interfaces such as Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) and Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) for digital communications. The SPI and I2C interfaces also allow for flexibility in interfacing with other devices, such as GPS receivers, making them suitable for use in navigation solutions.

In conclusion, motion sensors such as the ADIS16480BMLZ are a powerful and versatile tool for a wide variety of tasks. The integrated technology of this sensor provides highly accurate angular measurements as well as temperature, pressure, and displacement measurements. It also includes onboard microcontroller functions that allow for custom code and various application scenarios. The low power consumption and digital interfaces provide the flexibility and accuracy needed for a range of motion sensing applications.
