SPI digital output with 16-bit data-word
Low noise
Continuous self-test
Fail-safe functions
Temperature sensor
3.3 V and 5 V operation

Small, low-profile industry standard SOIC package provides
yaw rate (Z-axis) response
Innovative ceramic vertical mount package (VMP) provides
pitch and roll rate response
Qualified for automotive applications
The ADXRS800 is an angular rate sensor (gyroscope) intended
for automotive electronic stability control, vehicle rollover
detection, and other high performance applications. An advanced,
differential, quad-sensor design rejects the influence of linear
acceleration, enabling the ADXRS800 to operate in exceedingly
harsh environments where shock and vibration are present.
APPLICATIONS
The ADXRS800 is available in a cavity plastic SOIC-16 and
an SMT-compatible vertical mount package and is capable of
operating across both a wide voltage range (3.3 V to 5 V) and
temperature range (−40°C to 105°C).
The ADXRS800 uses an internal, continuous self-test architecture. The integrity of the electromechanical system is checked
by applying a high frequency electrostatic force to the sense
structure to generate a rate signal that can be differentiated
from the baseband rate data and internally analyzed.
The ADXRS800 is capable of sensing an angular rate of up to
±300°/sec. Angular rate data is presented as a 16-bit word, as
part of a 32-bit SPI message.
