Mouser Extends Motion and Positioning Range with New IMU, AHRS and Accelerometer Solutions

October 5, 2023 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, continues to expand its range of motion and positioning micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) solutions.

The continued growth of technology and its closer integration into everyday life has heightened the importance of a device’s ability to perceive its surroundings. Consumer applications, such as smartphone navigation and video game controllers, rely heavily on components like accelerometers and gyroscopes for locational and control information. In industrial settings, the significance of such sensors is also important. Gyroscopes, accelerometers, combined inertia measurement units (IMUs), and attitude and heading reference systems (AHRSs) all play a critical role in ensuring the effectiveness and safety of solutions ranging from automation and drones to navigation systems and platform stabilization.

New motion and positioning product highlights available from Mouser include the following:

• The FSM30x 9-Axis IMU/AHRS module from CEVA incorporates a 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis gyroscope, and 3-axis magnetometer, with a configurable sampling rate of up to 1 KHz. MotionEngine^™ technology provides raw, calibrated, and fused sensor orientation data with best-in-class stability and accuracy. The 32-bit Arm^® Cortex^® M0+ MCU runs CEVA’s Hillcrest Labs business unit high-performance sensor hub software stack and allows for intelligent power management with managed sensor state and low consumption for always-on applications. The modules feature advanced magnetic interference rejection algorithms and both dynamic and factory calibration to ensure accurate measurement in a wide range of conditions. As a small (20 mm x 25 mm) turnkey solution featuring example driver code for Android, Linux, and embedded designs, the FSM30X helps for faster time-to-market and reduced project costs. Ideal applications include navigation, 3D audio, fitness and health monitoring, flight control systems, asset tracking, body motion capture, and AR/VR motion tracking.
• The WSEN-ISDS from Würth Elektronik is a versatile and simple to integrate 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU). It boasts pre-calibrated output and processed data that cater to application-specific functionality, including free-fall, wake-up, tap, activity, motion, tilt, and orientation detection. Within the small 2.5 mm x 3.0 mm x 0.86 mm LGA package is a 3-axis acceleration sensor and 3-axis gyroscope sensor that feature selectable measuring ranges and data rates. The gyroscope allows data rates up to 937Hz, the accelerometer up to 1400 Hz, and the output data rate extends to 6.6k Hz, with a digital I²C and SPI interface and a FIFO buffer for storing output data. The measurement of linear and angular acceleration ranges from single-event registration to the continuous monitoring of high-frequency vibrations. Applications for the WSEN-ISDS include robotics, drones, automation, localization and navigation systems, industrial tools and machines, antenna and platform stabilization, and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions.
• Designed to provide high-accuracy single-axis vibration feedback and available to order from Mouser, the LVEP-TO5 embedded accelerometer from Amphenol Wilcoxon is a high-performance piezoelectric accelerometer with an ultra-low 180 μW power consumption. The accelerometers feature a 17 kHz resonance frequency, <10ms bias output voltage (BOV) settling time, and ±5% sensitivity tolerance, with an operational voltage as low as 3VDC and a current draw of just 60 μA. The sensors are housed in standard TO-5 semiconductor packaging and have a hermetic seal that prevents the passage of air, oxygen, and other gases. With dimensions of 8.4 mm x 9.6 mm and a weight of just 3.2g, they can be easily integrated into wireless vibration sensors and other battery-powered applications. Typical applications include high-volume integrated appliances, wireless vibration sensors, and other battery-powered implementations, including motor vibration sensors and structural health monitoring (SHM) solutions.
