Combisensor From SensorDynamics

SensorDynamics has launched the SD755 micromechanical combisensor which integrates an automotive integrating gyrometer and accelerometer in a single package. Both sensors transmit their signals over a shared SPI interface that facilitates further processing as well as minimising development time and system costs. The device is ideally suited for applications such as electronic stabilising systems in cars that match the actual road curvature with the angle lock. When there is a difference detected, single wh

RSSSensorDynamics has launched the SD755 micromechanical combisensor which integrates an automotive integrating gyrometer and accelerometer in a single package. Both sensors transmit their signals over a shared SPI interface that facilitates further processing as well as minimising development time and system costs. The device is ideally suited for applications such as electronic stabilising systems in cars that match the actual road curvature with the angle lock. When there is a difference detected, single wheels are systematically slowed down to avoid skidding. Evaluation boards are available.
