Q 

We are seeking a sensor similar to the ADIS16448, but without the pressure
sensor and housing, to allow for higher integration. The module must be still
functional after an acceleration of approximately 30000g. The technical data
should be at…

Q:

Can you offer more information on the sampling of sensor data in the ADIS16448?

A:

The gyroscopes, accelerometers, and temperature sensors are all sampled through a common ADC channel, which uses the following sequence to collect data samples.  This…

Q:

Do you have any plots for the ADIS16448's behavior over temperature?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A:

Yes, the following plots were part of an early characterization…

Q: What is the Center of Gravity for the ADIS16448?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

A:

Based on a simple measurement, I came up with the following estimate:

Q:

Do you have any starter code for working with the ADIS16448?

A:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, we do. The ADIS16448 operates as a "SPI slave," which many embedded processors support…

Q:

Where do I find information on evaluation tools for the ADIS16448 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)?

Q:

Where can I purchase the flex connector for connecting the ADIS16448AMLZ to the EVAL-ADISZ?

A:

Unfortunately, the pin numbers on the silk screen are not correct. While we explore opportunities to correct this issue, here are two pictures, which clearly identify the errors and the correct pin assignments

Here are the correct pin assignments:

Q 

Is the magnetometer (compass) heading corrected for acceleration, deceleration
and turning errors or must we implement a manual gyrocompassing algorithm? If
so, do you provide such an algorithm?

A 

No for these type of corrections, customers need…
