The ADXRS622 is a complete angular rate sensor (gyroscope)
that uses the Analog Devices, Inc., surface-micromachining
process to make a functionally complete and low cost angular
rate sensor integrated with all of the required electronics on one
chip. The manufacturing technique for this device is the same
high volume BiMOS process used for high reliability automotive
airbag accelerometers.
The output signal, RATEOUT (1B, 2A), is a voltage proportional to
the angular rate about the axis that is normal to the top surface of
the package. The output is ratiometric with respect to a provided
reference supply. An external capacitor sets the bandwidth. Other
external capacitors are required for operation.
APPLICATIONS
Vehicle chassis rollover sensing
Inertial measurement units
Platform stabilization
A temperature output is provided for compensation techniques.
Two digital self-test inputs electromechanically excite the sensor
to test proper operation of both the sensor and the signal conditioning circuits. The ADXRS622 is available in a 7 mm × 7 mm ×
3 mm BGA chip-scale package.

External Capacitor COUT is used in combination with the onchip ROUT resistor to create a low-pass filter to limit the bandwidth
of the ADXRS622 rate response. The −3 dB frequency set by

TEMPERATURE OUTPUT AND CALIBRATION
It is common practice to temperature-calibrate gyros to improve
their overall accuracy. The ADXRS622 has a temperature proportional voltage output that provides input to such a calibration
method. The temperature sensor structure is shown in Figure 23.
The temperature output is characteristically nonlinear, and any
load resistance connected to the TEMP output results in decreasing
the TEMP output and its temperature coefficient. Therefore,
buffering the output is recommended.
The voltage at the TEMP pin (3F, 3G) is nominally 2.5 V at 25°C,
and VRATIO = 5 V. The temperature coefficient is ~9 mV/°C at
25°C. Although the TEMP output is highly repeatable, it has
only modest absolute accuracy.
VRATIO
and can be well controlled because ROUT has been trimmed
during manufacturing to be 180 kΩ ± 1%. Any external resistor
applied between the RATEOUT pin (1B, 2A) and SUMJ pin
(1C, 2C) results in
ROUT = (180 kΩ × REXT )/(180 kΩ + REXT )

The electrostatic resonator requires 18 V to 20 V for operation.
Because only 5 V are typically available in most applications,
a charge pump is included onchip. If an external 18 V to 20 V
supply is available, the two capacitors on CP1 from CP4 can
be omitted, and this supply can be connected to the CP5 pin
(6D, 7D). Note that CP5 should not be grounded when power is
applied to the ADXRS622. Although no damage occurs, under
certain conditions the charge pump may fail to start up after the
ground is removed if power is not first removed from the
ADXRS622.
0.1
(°/sec/ Hz rms)
The ADXRS622 operates on the principle of a resonator gyro.
Two polysilicon sensing structures each contain a dither frame
that is electrostatically driven to resonance, producing the necessary velocity element to produce a Coriolis force during angular
rate. At two of the outer extremes of each frame, orthogonal to
the dither motion, are movable fingers that are placed between
fixed pickoff fingers to form a capacitive pickoff structure that
senses Coriolis motion. The resulting signal is fed to a series of
gain and demodulation stages that produce the electrical rate
signal output. The dual-sensor design rejects external g-forces and
vibration. Fabricating the sensor with the signal conditioning
electronics preserves signal integrity in noisy environments.
Figure 23. ADXRS622 Temperature Sensor Structure
CALIBRATED PERFORMANCE
In general, an additional hardware or software filter is added to
attenuate high frequency noise arising from demodulation spikes
at the 14 kHz resonant frequency of the gyro. The noise spikes
at 14 kHz can be clearly seen in the power spectral density
curve, shown in Figure 21. Typically, this additional filter corner
frequency is set to greater than 5× the required bandwidth to
preserve good phase response.
Using a three-point calibration technique, it is possible to
calibrate the ADXRS622 null and sensitivity drift to an overall
accuracy of nearly 200°/hour. An overall accuracy of 40°/hour
or better is possible using more points.
Limiting the bandwidth of the device reduces the flat-band noise
during the calibration process, improving the measurement
accuracy at each calibration point.
Figure 22 shows the effect of adding a 250 Hz filter to the
output of an ADXRS622 set to 40 Hz bandwidth (as shown
in Figure 21). High frequency demodulation artifacts are
attenuated by approximately 18 dB.

ADXRS622
ADXRS622 AND SUPPLY RATIOMETRICITY
NULL ADJUSTMENT
The ADXRS622 RATEOUT and TEMP signals are ratiometric
to the VRATIO voltage, that is, the null voltage, rate sensitivity, and
temperature outputs are proportional to VRATIO. Therefore, the
ADXRS622 is most easily used with a supply-ratiometric analogto-digital converter (ADC) that results in self-cancellation of errors
due to minor supply variations.
The nominal 2.5 V null is for a symmetrical swing range at
RATEOUT (1B, 2A). However, a nonsymmetric output swing
may be suitable in some applications. Null adjustment is possible
by injecting a suitable current to SUMJ (1C, 2C). Note that supply
disturbances may reflect some null instability. Digital supply noise
should be avoided, particularly in this case.
There is some small error due to nonratiometric behavior. Typical
ratiometricity error for null, sensitivity, self-test, and temperature
output is outlined in Table 4.

Note that VRATIO must never be greater than AVCC.

The ADXRS622 includes a self-test feature that actuates each of
the sensing structures and associated electronics as if subjected
to angular rate. It is activated by standard logic high levels applied
to Input ST1 (5F, 5G), Input ST2 (4F, 4G), or both. ST1 causes
the voltage at RATEOUT to change about −0.5 V, and ST2 causes
an opposite change of +0.5 V. The self-test response follows the
viscosity temperature dependence of the package atmosphere,
approximately 0.25%/°C.

Activating both ST1 and ST2 simultaneously is not damaging.
ST1 and ST2 are fairly closely matched (±5%), but actuating
both simultaneously may result in a small apparent null bias
shift proportional to the degree of self-test mismatch.
The on-chip integration of the ADXRS622 gives it higher reliability
than is obtainable with any other high volume manufacturing
method. In addition, it is manufactured under a mature BIMOS
process that has field-proven reliability. As an additional failure
detection measure, power-on self-test can be performed.
However, some applications may warrant continuous self-test
while sensing rate. Details outlining continuous self-test
techniques are also available in the AN-768 Application Note.
