Product Specifications
ADIS16470AMLZ — Wide Dynamic Range MEMS Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
Brand: Analog Devices | Package: 44-Ball BGA | Status: Production
Product Overview
The ADIS16470AMLZ is a complete, miniature MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU) from Analog Devices, integrating a triaxial digital gyroscope and a triaxial digital accelerometer to deliver six degrees of freedom (6 DoF) motion sensing. Each internal inertial sensor is built upon ADI’s industry‑leading iMEMS® technology and advanced signal‑conditioning circuitry, ensuring optimized dynamic performance.
The device is fully factory‑calibrated for sensitivity, bias, alignment, and linear acceleration (gyroscope bias) across the full operating temperature range. Each sensor is paired with an independent dynamic compensation formula, providing precise and stable measurements under wide temperature variations and complex operating conditions. Compared to complex and expensive discrete solutions, the ADIS16470AMLZ offers a simple, cost‑effective way to integrate high‑accuracy multi‑axis inertial sensing into industrial systems.
