With an input measurement range of ±5 g and vibration rectification error of 20 μg/g², AXO305 is tailored to navigation, positioning and motion control functions of land, rail and marine transportation systems and vehicles.
It demonstrates a Bias Instability of 4 μg with a ±0.5 mg bias over its temperature range, thus enabling precise GNSS-aided navigation of manned and unmanned ground vehicles and trains when integrated into Inertial Navigation System (INS). AXO305 is a perfect candidate for Motion Reference Units (MRU) used for ship motion control and dynamic positioning, Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) for land navigation, subsea navigation of AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) and ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicles), platform and crane stabilization as well as precision robotics.
Miniature and robust accelerometers for systems operating under vibration conditions
The closed-loop architecture of Tronics AXO300 platform offers high resolution and strong vibration rejection. Accelerometers and inclinometers from the Tronics AXO300 series are housed in a miniature, hermetic, ceramic J-lead package that ensures long operational and storage life and guarantees a high compliancy with the stringent thermal cycling requirements of critical applications. They embed fully hard-coded electronics with a 24-bit digital SPI interface for a swift integration into stand-alone sensor modules, INS, IMU as well as Attitude and Heading Reference Systems (AHRS). The built-in self-test ensures initial verification of the sensor’s integrity and continuous in-operation functionality test.
AXO305 is now available for sampling and customer evaluations, directly at Tronics or through specialized distribution channels like Texim. Swift evaluation of the sensor can also be made with an Arduino-based evaluation kit that provides built-in testing functionalities such as output reading and recording, recalibration, and digital self-tests.
