The ADXRS620 is a complete angular rate sensor (gyroscope)
that uses the Analog Devices, Inc., surface-micromachining
process to create a functionally complete and low cost angular
rate sensor integrated with all required electronics on one chip.
The manufacturing technique for this device is the same high
volume BiMOS process that is used for high reliability automotive
airbag accelerometers.
The output signal, RATEOUT (1B, 2A), is a voltage that is
proportional to angular rate about the axis 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 ADXRS620 is available in a 7 mm × 7 mm ×
3 mm BGA ceramic package.

THEORY OF OPERATION
SETTING BANDWIDTH
External Capacitor COUT is used in combination with the onchip ROUT resistor to create a low-pass filter to limit the
bandwidth of the ADXRS620 rate response. The −3 dB
frequency set by ROUT and COUT is
fOUT =
1
(2 × π × ROUT × COUT )
This frequency 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
(180 kΩ × REXT )

TEMPERATURE OUTPUT AND CALIBRATION
It is common practice to temperature-calibrate gyros to improve
their overall accuracy. The ADXRS620 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 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.

RFIXED

08887-022
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 on chip. If an external 18 V to 20 V
supply is available, the two capacitors on CP1 through CP4 can
be omitted and this supply can be connected to CP5 (Pin 6D,
Pin 7D). Note that CP5 should not be grounded when power is
applied to the ADXRS620. Although no damage occurs, under
certain conditions the charge pump may fail to start up after the
ground is removed without first removing power from the
ADXRS620.
Figure 22 shows the effect of adding a 250 Hz filter to the output
of an ADXRS620 set to 40 Hz bandwidth (as shown in Figure 21).
High frequency demodulation artifacts are attenuated by
approximately 18 dB.
NOISE SPECTRAL DENSITY(°/sec/√Hz rms)
The ADXRS620 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 produces 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. 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 gyro’s 14 kHz resonant frequency. (The noise spikes
at 14 kHz can be clearly seen in the power spectral density curve
shown in Figure 21). Typically, this additional filter’s 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 null and sensitivity drift of the ADXRS620 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.

ADXRS620
ADXRS620 AND SUPPLY RATIOMETRICITY
NULL ADJUSTMENT
The ADXRS620 RATEOUT and TEMP signals are ratiometric
to the VRATIO voltage, that is, the null voltage, rate sensitivity, and
temperature outputs are proportional to VRATIO. Thus, the
ADXRS620 is most easily used with a supply-ratiometric ADC
that results in self-cancellation of errors due to minor supply
variations. There is some small error due to nonratiometric
behavior. Typical ratiometricity error for null, sensitivity, selftest, and temperature output is outlined in Table 4.
The nominal 2.5 V null is for a symmetrical swing range at
RATEOUT (1B, 2A). However, a nonsymmetrical 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.
Note that VRATIO must never be greater than AVCC.

SELF-TEST FUNCTION
The ADXRS620 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 −0.450 V, and ST2
causes an opposite change of +0.450 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.
ST1 and ST2 are activated by applying a voltage equal to VRATIO
to the ST1 and ST2 pins. The voltage applied to ST1 and ST2
must never be greater than AVCC.
CONTINUOUS SELF-TEST
The on-chip integration of the ADXRS620 gives it higher reliability
than is obtainable with any other high volume manufacturing
method. In addition, it is manufactured under a mature BiMOS
process with field-proven reliability. As an additional failure
detection measure, a 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 at analog.com.
