AMC332

A MicroTCA digital gyroscope module is an AMC plug-in board that measures angular movement and sends the motion data to a MicroTCA system.

It typically contains:

• One or more digital gyroscope sensors
• Measurement of rotation around the X, Y, and Z axes
• Signal conditioning and digital processing
• Interfaces such as SPI, I²C, PCIe, Ethernet, or a custom backplane connection
• Timestamping and synchronization inputs
• Sometimes accelerometers and magnetometers, forming an IMU

Common uses include:

• Navigation and attitude measurement
• Platform stabilization
• Motion and vibration monitoring
• Aerospace and defense testing
• Robotics and antenna positioning
• Inertial measurement systems

As a standardized platform of PICMG MicroTCA systems are typically used in medical applications, telecommunications as well as in measurement systems for industrial and scientific applications (e.g. particle physics).

Description:

AMC332 is based on the Analog Device ADIS16505 device which provides Triaxial Digital Gyroscope. The module has an on-board CPU based on the NPX iMX8M Quad Core which provides Dual Ethernet and PCIe to the backplane. The Gyroscope data is available via Ethernet and/or PCIe.

AMC332 has a display in the front that shows the Triaxial information with the full-size front panel (6HP). The module is also available with a mid-size front panel (4HP), but does not come with the front panel display in this case.

Key Features:

• The AMC module provides Triaxial, digital gyroscope
• Based on the Analog device ADIS16505 Miniature Microelectromechanical System (MEMS) inertial Measurement unit (IMU)
• Triaxial, digital accelerometer +/-78.4 m/sec2
• 26.5 um/sec2 in-run bias stability
• Processor based on the iMX8M quad core
• PCIe and Ethernet interface to the backplane
• Front panel display
• IPMI 2.0 compliant
• RoHS compliant
