PinPoint® is a single-axis MEMS angular rate sensor
(gyro) capable of measuring angular velocity up to a
maximum of ±1,000º/s which has two output modes;
an analogue voltage signal which is linearly
proportional to angular speed, and a digital signal in
SPI® protocol. The choice of output mode; analogue
or digital, is determined by the user when connecting
it to the user’s host PCBA; details of the electrical
interface between PinPoint® and the host PCBA are
given in Section 7.
PinPoint® is available in several configurations;
a) CRM100 which measures angular velocity about
an axis perpendicular to the plane of the host PCBA,
referred to as ‘in-plane’ sensing, b) CRM200 which
measures angular velocity about an axis which
is parallel to the plane of the host PCBA, referred
to as ‘orthogonal’ sensing and c) CRM120 which
measures angular velocity about an axis 20º off the
perpendicular for applications where the host PCBA is
a 20º an inclined angle. This datasheet relates to part
number CRM200.
With a combination of CRM100 and CRM200 it is
possible for the user to measure angular rate of
multiple axes (e.g. any combination of pitch, yaw and
roll) from a single host PCBA.
PinPoint® is supplied as a PCBA surface mountable
LCC ceramic packaged device. It comprises five main
components; silicon MEMS ring Sensor, Pedestal,
ASIC, Package Base and Lid. More details of the
construction are given in Section 13.
There are eight actuators / transducers distributed
evenly around the perimeter of the silicon MEMS ring.
Located about its primary axes are a single pair of
‘primary drive’ actuators and a single pair of ‘primary
pick-off’ transducers. Located about its secondary
axes (at 45° to the primary) are two pairs of ‘secondary
pick-off’ transducers see Figure 1.1.
The ‘primary drive’ actuators and ‘primary pick-off’
transducers act together in a closed-loop system to
excite and control the ring primary operating vibration
amplitude and frequency.
Secondary ‘pick-off’ transducers detect radial movement
at the secondary axes, the magnitude of which is
proportional to the angular speed of rotation and from
which the gyro derives angular rate.
More information about the principles of operation are
given in Section 13.

7.3 Supply Voltage
The required supply voltage is 2.7 to 3.6V, and the
ramp rate during power up should be > 1V/ms.
7.4 Measurement Range Set-Up
Dynamic range for the analogue output mode can be
set at ±75°/s, ±150°/s, ±300°/s or ±900°/s [saturates
at approximately ±1,000deg/s].
The dynamic range of the analogue output from the
gyroscope is user selectable by means of two range
select pins. This is described in Figure 7.3 (Peripheral
Circuit Analogue Output). Note that the status of these
range select pins is read at power-up and no attempt
should be made to alter the rate range dynamically
during operation.
Note; the analogue output remains available
on pin 5 when the gyro is connected in Digital
Output mode, however it is recommended
that this is not used by the Host System and
instead is non-electrically connected (NEC).
Where:
Vdd is the supply voltage,
dθ/dt is the rate of rotation about the sense axis,
k is the scale factor coefficient dependent on rate
range and supply voltage. Note that the sensor is
ratiometric with respect to the supply voltage when
operating in analogue output mode:
For ±75°/s operation, k = 0.012 x Vdd/3
For ±150°/s operation, k = 0.006 x Vdd/3
For ±300°/s operation, k = 0.003 x Vdd/3
For ±900°/s operation, k = 0.001 x Vdd/3
f is the frequency of the rate of rotation (if not steady state),
R is the roll-off resistor inside the ASIC (nominally 48k),
C BW is the bandwidth capacitor (C2).
Note that wide band frequency response approximates
to a third order. A more thorough expression of
bandwidth is.
7.5 Bandwidth (Analogue Output)
The value of capacitor C2 (47nF) in the Peripheral
Circuit shown in Figure 7.3 sets the bandwidth at
60Hz. To set other bandwidths select the C2 capacitor
values according to the Table 7.2 below:
Capacitive Value of C2
Bandwidth (reference)
33nF
Typ 95Hz
47nF
Typ 70Hz
68nF
Typ 50Hz
100nF
Typ 33Hz
120nF
Typ 27Hz
270nF
Typ 12Hz
where
R is nominally 48k but has a process tolerance of ±14%.
7.6 Bandwidth (Digital Output)
The Bandwidth on the Digital Output follows that of
the Analogue mode, being set by C2 as described in
section 7.5. However, to optimise the oversampling
performance of the ADC, the user may make this
value 560pF and implement digital filter algorithms in
the Host system.
7.7 Non-Electrical Connections (NEC)
The minimum value of C2 is 560pF. C2 should have
a ceramic dielectric.
Pins 1, 8, 9 and 16 are NOT to be connected
electrically, they are for mechanical purposes only.
Also pin 5 is NOT to be connected electrically when
the gyro is in Digital Output mode.
For angular rate inputs in the frequency range DC to
120Hz, the analogue response of PinPoint® can be
approximated by the following expression:
7.8 Built In Test (BIT) & Commanded
Built In Test (CBIT)
Table 7.2 Bandwidth Capacitor Values
Note: CBW = C2
PinPoint® contains a sophisticated health monitoring
system that continuously checks a number of key
parameters within the gyro control ASIC. For ease
of use, each of the parameters are verified against
internal limits and the results gated together, such that
the user gets a single BIT line confirming the correct
operation of the gyro.

CRM200
Technical Datasheet
The functions that are monitored are as follows, with any
failure resulting in BIT_Out being set to false (logic ‘0’):
1. The calibration data memory area is checked for
parity at power-up. In the event that any single
data bit has failed, BIT_Out will be set to false.
2. The trim and calibration coefficients in the data
memory are fed into the control electronics by
means of individual DAC conversion stages.
These are also verified at power up, so that an
incorrect conversion of trim data into performance
setting will result in BIT_Out being set to false.
3. For correct operation, the MEMS silicon ring is set
into oscillation at its resonant frequency to a
preset amplitude. The primary drive control loops
set the amplitude of motion of the ring using an
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuit. The BIT
system monitors the required drive from the AGC:
if the required drive is too high, (indicating either
an electronic drive failure, a transducer failure or
a structural failure of the ring itself), the BIT_Out
signal will be set false. Similarly, if the AGC level
is too low, (indicating a failure in the control loop
electronics or the drive transducer), BIT_Out will
be set to false. One consequence of this function
is that, during startup, the BIT_Out will be set
false until the loops have closed and stabilised to
the correct values.
4. The angular rate output is derived from the
demodulated secondary pick-off signal. The
amplitude of this signal is checked against a
maximum: in the event that the gyro is rotated
at an angular rate beyond the level at which the
control loops can operate, (i.e. >>1,000°/s), then
the saturation of the demodulator will set BIT_Out
to false. Note that BIT_Out will NOT be set to false
when the Analogue Rate Output stage saturates:
for example, if the gyro is configured for 75°/s
range, and rotated at 300°/s, the internal control
electronics will still operate correctly and BIT_Out
will NOT be set false.
5. Key to PinPoint®’s performance is the balance of
the MEMS ring and matching of the secondary
transducers. These aspects are internally
monitored by measuring the demodulated
quadrature signal from the rate demodulation
stage. Whilst this signal contains no direct
angular rate information, its magnitude is a very
good indication regarding the health of the
transducers, the ring and the demodulation
electronics. Any excess quadrature signal will
result in BIT_Out being set to false.
www.pinpoint-gyro.com
In addition, the SPI® message has a checksum
calculation performed. Any checksum failure will be
reported as a separate flag in the SPI® message see Section 7.12.5.
A ‘Commanded Built In Test’ (CBIT) is also available
which allows the user to request a test function to be
applied, causing an offset to appear on the rate signal
equivalent to 50°/s of rate. This test function can be
initiated by the use of the CBIT input pin in analogue
mode or via the SPI® interface in digital mode. When
CBIT is enabled the BIT_Out signal is set to ‘false’ to
indicate the device is in the test mode.
The function checks a large proportion of the gyro
functionality including the primary loop, secondary
pick-off amplifiers, secondary rate channel filtering,
rate range selection, rate output buffer, ADC
references, ADC conversion and digital output
filtering.
7.9 Temperature Sensor
The ASIC within PinPoint® contains a temperature
sensor cell that is accessible only via the digital
interface. Users may interrogate this sensor as
described in Section 7.12.5 such that the thermal
characteristics of any individual PinPoint® gyro can be
compensated at system level. Dependent on the level
of compensation required, algorithms that use linear
fits, quadratic fits or piece-wise-linear lookup tables
will further enhance the system level performance.
It is preferable in such applications to use the internal
temperature sensor rather than an external temperature
sensor so as to avoid the effects of system level
thermal gradients.
For example, a second order polynomial correction for
both offset and sensitivity could be described as.
ωT = (a + bΔT + cΔT 2) + ω20′C (1 + dΔT + eΔT 2)
The sensitivity of the temperature sensor is nominally
2.75 LSB / °C, with +25°C being represented by
60010 ±2010 LSB.
The sensor is an integral part of the ASIC. The power
consumption of PinPoint® is so low that the thermal
asymmetry between the control electronics and the
ring itself is extremely low.
The temperature signal is not available as an
analogue signal.

Technical Datasheet
7.10 Power Supply Noise Rejection
7.12.1 Digital SPI® Interface
By design, PinPoint® is a ratiometric sensor; the
analogue output characteristics are therefore
controlled by both the applied angular rate and the
supply voltage. Consequently the user should take
any necessary precautions to manage the supplies
from a noise and ripple viewpoint. Any noise or ripple
within the selected pass band will appear on the
output at half the magnitude. Good system
decoupling is recommended for best performance.
If ratiometric response is not desired, then PinPoint®
should be operated either from a well regulated supply
or alternately, the digital output should be used.
By virtue of the internal ADC sharing a common
reference voltage, the digital output is not ratiometric.
The digital interface is configured as SPI® operating
as a ‘Slave’ in a ‘Mode 0’ configuration. [Note: for
interfacing to most microcontrollers, this is often set
up as CPOL=0 and CPHA=0].
In addition, PinPoint® determines the angular rate
from a double-sideband suppressed carrier signal
superimposed on the primary resonance of the
vibrating ring. The carrier is at a frequency of nominally
22kHz. In common with all demodulation systems,
power supply rejection at the demodulation frequency
and its odd harmonics is limited, and care should be
taken to minimise power supply ripple at frequencies
around 22kHz, 66kHz and 110kHz. If the system
is to be supplied from a switching regulator, it is
recommended that the switching frequency should
be not less than 150kHz.
7.11 PROG pin 13 – Special Note
The factory calibration is effected by One Time
Programmable setting via pin 13. Users should
ensure that this is connected to Vdd. Voltages in
excess of Vdd applied to this pin may permanently
and irreversibly damage the calibration area of the
device.
7.12 Digital Mode
To activate the digital mode of operation for the
PinPoint® gyro, it is necessary to connect the
MODE_SEL (Pin 6 on CRM200) input to the positive
supply rail (Vdd). This not only activates the internal
ADC, but also switches a number of the I/O pins
to secondary functions to create the interface. The
recommended configuration is shown in Figure 7.4
Peripheral Circuit (Digital Mode).
Figure 7.5 shows the principle of SPI® data transfer.
Data is transferred to the Host System and PinPoint®
in complete messages which are 6 bytes or 48 bits in
length.

Figure 7.5 SPI® Data Transfer Principle
As shown in Figure 7.5, the Host System acts as a
SPI master and provides the clock to the SPI® shift
registers. In most instances the Host System cannot
take all 48 bits in one tranche as the receive registers
are 8 or 16-bit wide. Because the Host System is
running as a SPI® master, it is relatively simple to take
the data one byte or word at a time as a single bit is
shifted on each clock cycle.
For example, if the Host System needs to read the
data on a byte-by-byte basis, the steps required are:
1. Set SS to a logic 0 to initiate the transfer.
2. Send 8 SPI® clock cycles to transfer a byte of
data between PinPoint® and the Host System.
3. The Host System can store the received byte.
4. Repeat 2 and 3 until all 6 bytes have been
received.
5. Set SS to a logic 1 to complete the transfer.
A full timing diagram is shown in Figure 7.6 with the
parameters detailed in Table 7.3.

7.12.2 SPI® Bus Limitation (Early Samples)
Early samples of PinPoint® are identified by the 14
character lot identifier beginning with ‘2’. These
parts had a known tri-state limitation. The gyro
implementation did not appear as a high impedance
load when deselected (SS = 1) and as a result the
Data_Out pin (Pin 3 on CRM200) would still be active.
Therefore it is recommended that PinPoint® gyros
having the designation 1xxxx are the only device
connected to the Host System on a dedicated gyro
SPI® bus.

The Checksum Byte is used by the PinPoint® gyro to

binary number which is the least significant 8 bits of
the logical inverse of the sum of bytes 1 to 5 inclusive.
As an example, here is a command to request data
from a ±150°/s rate range gyro:

Figure 7.9 Command Byte Format
Bit 7
‘0’ = Normal User Mode
‘1’ = Factory Use Only
Bit 7 MUST be set to ‘0’ for the Host System to receive
useful data from the PinPoint® gyro. The data returned
contains both rate and temperature information.
Bit 6
‘0’ = CBIT Disabled
‘1’ = CBIT Enabled
Bit 6 is used to enable the ‘Commanded Built In Test’
function (BIT) which produces a 50°/s nominal offset
on the rate output signal.
Bit 5
‘0’ = Internal Rate Range
‘1’ = SPI® Rate Range
Bit 5 identifies the source for setting the Rate Range.
If the bit is set to a ‘0’, then the source becomes the
internal factory default (±75°/s). If the bit is set to a
‘1’, then bits 4 and 3 in the message are used to make
the required Rate Range selection.
Bits 4 & 3
The sum of these bytes is 0x30 and its logical inverse
is 0xCF. Thus the checksum byte is:
‘00’ = ±900º/s Rate Range
‘01’ = ±300º/s Rate Range
‘10’ = ±150º/s Rate Range
‘11’ = ±75º/s Rate Range
Bits 4 and 3 are used in combination to select the
Rate Range via the SPI® bus.

The complete message transmitted, in hexadecimal

Bit 7
‘1’ = Gyro Fail
‘0’ = Gyro OK
Bit 7 identifies the working state of the PinPoint® gyro.
If this bit is set to a ‘1’, then the PinPoint® gyro has
failed its internal checks and the data within the
message contained in bytes 2 to 5 should be
considered invalid, and if set to a ‘0’ then the PinPoint®
gyro has successfully passed its internal checks and
the data within the message contained in bytes 2 to
5 can be considered valid. Bit 7 is also set to a ‘1’ if
CBIT function is enabled.
Bits 6 & 5
‘00’ = Rate/Temp Data
Bits 6 and 5 return an identifier to the message type,
and therefore identify the data types within bytes 2 to 5.
Message Type ‘00’ is the only one available to the
Host System as all others are for Factory Use Only.
Bit 4
‘1’ = Previous Message Invalid
‘0’ = Previous Message Valid
Bit 4 provides feedback with regard to the previous
Command Message sent by the Host System. If the

corrupt (i.e. the checksum was invalid) and the
message was ignored. The output message type
will be that selected in the last valid Command

Table 7.4 Digital Rate Scale Factors
For example; a rate word value of 12C0 (hex) would be
equal to +50°/s on the ±75°/s rate range, or a value of
F4C0 (hex) would be equal to -120°/s on the ±300°/s
rate range.
Data Byte - Temp (Byte 4 and 5)
Data bytes 4 and 5 contain the internal Temperature
Data information from the PinPoint® gyro. Byte 4 is
the MS byte and byte 5 is the LS byte of the complete
word. The data is represented in unsigned binary
format.
A temperature code of 0200 (hex), equivalent to 512 in
decimal, represents 0°C. The scale factor of the data
word is fixed at 2.75 bits/°C.
For example; -40°C would be represented by 0192
(hex) or 402 (dec) and +85°C as 02E9 (hex) or 745 (dec).
Checksum Byte (Byte 6)
The Checksum Byte is used by the PinPoint® gyro
to ensure that the message is valid.
7.12.6 Digital Bandwidth
The bandwidth for the PinPoint® gyro in digital output
mode is determined by the value of capacitor C2.
However, to optimise the oversampling performance
of the ADC, the user may make this value 560pF and
implement digital filter algorithms in the Host System.
7.12.7 SPI® Sampling Rate and Clock
Frequency
It is recommended that the Host System takes data
from the gyroscope at a rate of 1,000 messages
per second (1kHz). Message rates up to 10kHz may
be accommodated, but rates less than 500Hz may
lead to unwanted aliasing in the frequency domain.
The recommended SPI® clock frequency is 1MHz
(100kHz minimum to 8MHz maximum).

10 Mounting and Soldering Information
CRM200 can be automatically ‘picked and placed’
onto the host PCBA using readily available surface
mounters fitted with conventional rubber nozzles.
Trials have been conducted which prove that solder
paste is sufficient to hold CRM200 parts in place prior
to soldering. Care must be taken to ensure correct
alignment of the gyro with respect to the host PCBA
to avoid excessive cross-axis sensitivity.
Examples of surface mounters, as used by other
PinPoint® CRM200 customers, are:

13 Internal Construction and Theory
of Operation
Construction
PinPoint® is available in two basic configurations, one
which will measure angular velocity about an axis
perpendicular to the plane of the host PCBA (‘in-plane’
sensing - CRM100) and one which measures angular
velocity about an axis which is parallel to the plane of
the host PCBA (‘orthogonal’ sensing - CRM200).
PinPoint® (CRM100 and CRM200) is supplied as a
PCBA surface mountable LCC ceramic packaged
device. It comprises five main components; silicon
Figure 13.2 CRM100 (Lid Removed)
Silicon MEMS Ring Sensor
The 3mm diameter by 65μm thick silicon MEMS ring
is fabricated by Silicon Sensing using a DRIE (Deep
Reactive Ion Etch) bulk silicon process on a 5 inch
wafer. The annular ring is supported in free-space by
eight pairs of ‘dog-leg’ shaped symmetrical spokes
which radiate from a central 1mm diameter solid hub.
The bulk silicon etch process and unique patented
ring design enable close tolerance geometrical
properties for precise balance and thermal stability
and, unlike other MEMS gyros, there are no small gaps
to create problems of interference and stiction.

Technical Datasheet
These features contribute significantly to PinPoint®’s
bias and scale factor stability over temperature, and
vibration and shock immunity. Another advantage
of the design is its inherent immunity to acceleration
induced rate error, or ‘g-sensitivity’.
Strain film actuators/transducers are attached to the
upper surface of the silicon ring perimeter and are
electrically connected to bond pads on the ring hub
via tracks on the spokes. These actuate or ‘drive’ the
ring into its Cos2 mode of vibration at a frequency
of 22kHz or detect radial motion of the ring perimeter
either caused by the primary drive actuator or by the
coriolis force effect when the gyro is rotating about
its sensing axis. There is a single pair of primary
drive actuators and a single pair of primary pick-off
transducers, and two pairs of secondary pick-off
transducers.
The combination of transducer technology and eight
secondary pick-off transducers improves PinPoint®’s
signal-to-noise ratio, the benefit of which is a very
low-noise device with excellent angular random walk
properties which are key to inertial navigation type
applications, as well as camera/antenna pointing
stability.
Pedestal
The hub of the MEMS ring is supported above the
ASIC on a 1mm diameter cylindrical silicon pedestal,
which is bonded to the ring and ASIC using an epoxy
resin.
ASIC
The ASIC is a 3mm x 3mm device fabricated using
0.35μm CMOS process. ASIC and MEMS are
physically separate and are connected electrically
by using gold bond wires and thus the ASIC has
no MEMS-to-ASIC internal tracking, meaning
there is reduced noise pick-up and excellent EMC
performance. Gold bond wires also connect the ASIC
to the internal bond pads on the Package Base.
Package Base and Lid
The LCC ceramic Package Base is a multi-layer
aluminium oxide construction with internal bond
wire pads connected through the Package Base via
integral multi-level tungsten interconnects to a series
of external solder pads. Similar integral interconnects
www.pinpoint-gyro.com
in the ceramic layers connect the Lid to Vss, thus
the sensitive elements are inside a Faraday shield
for excellent EMC. Internal and external pads are
electroplated gold on electroplated nickel.
The Package Base incorporates a seal ring on the
upper layer onto which a Kovar ® metal Lid is seam
welded using a rolling resistance electrode, thus
creating a totally hermetic seal. Unlike other MEMS
gyro packages available on the market, PinPoint®
has a specially developed seam weld process which
eliminates the potential for internal weld spatter.
Inferior designs can cause dislodged weld spatter
which affects gyro reliability due to interference with
the vibratory MEMS element, especially where the
MEMS structure has small gaps, unlike PinPoint®
with its large gaps as described above.
Theory of Operation
Pinpoint® is a solid-state device and thus has no
moving parts other than the deflection of the ring
itself. It detects the magnitude and direction of
angular velocity by using the ‘coriolis force’ effect.
As the gyro is rotated coriolis forces acting on
the silicon ring cause radial movement at the ring
perimeter.
There are eight actuators/transducers distributed
evenly around the perimeter of the silicon MEMS ring.
Located about its primary axes (0° and 90°) are a
single pair of ‘primary drive’ actuators and a single
pair of ‘primary pick-off’ transducers. Located about
its secondary axes (45° and 135°) are two pairs of
‘secondary pick-off’ transducers.
The ‘primary drive’ actuators and ‘primary pick-off’
transducers act together in a closed-loop system to
excite and control the ring primary operating vibration
amplitude and frequency (22kHz).
Secondary ‘pick-off’ transducers detect radial
movement at the secondary axes, the magnitude of
which is proportional to the angular speed of rotation
and from which the gyro derives angular rate. The
transducers produce a double sideband, suppressed
carrier signal, which is demodulated back to a
baseband, the width of which is controlled by the
user by one simple external capacitor. This gives the
user complete flexibility over in system performance,
and makes the transduction completely independent
of DC or low frequency parametric conditions of the
electronics.

Technical Datasheet
Referring to Figures 13.3(a) to 13.3(d)
Figure 13.3(a) shows the structure of the silicon MEMS
ring. Figure 13.3(b) shows the ring diagrammatically,
the spokes, actuators and transducers removed for
clarity, indicating the Primary Drive actuators (single
pair), Primary Pick-Off transducers (single pair) and
Secondary Pick-Off transducers (two pairs).
In Figure 13.3(b) the annular ring is circular and is
representative of the gyro when unpowered.
When powered-up the ring is excited along its primary
axes using the Primary Drive actuators and Primary
Pick-Off transducers acting in a closed-loop control
system within the ASIC. The circular ring is deformed
into a ‘Cos2θ’ mode which is elliptical in form and
has a natural frequency of 22kHz. This is depicted in
Figure 13.3(c). In Figure 13.3(c) the gyro is powered-up
but still not rotating. At the four Secondary Pick-Off
nodes located at 45° to the primary axes on the ring
perimeter there is effectively no radial motion.

If the gyro is now subjected to applied angular rate,
as indicated in Figure 13.3(d), then this causes the ring
to be subjected to coriolis forces acting at a tangent
to the ring perimeter on the primary axes. These
forces in turn deform the ring causing radial motion
at the Secondary Pick-Off transducers. It is the motion
detected at the Secondary Pick-off transducers which
is proportional to the applied angular rate.
The DSBSC signal is demodulated with respect to
the primary motion, which results in a low frequency
component which is proportional to angular rate.
