Accelerometer and Gyroscope Digital : LSM6DS3

The LSM6DS3 is a system-in-package featuring a 3D  digital accelerometer and a 3D digital gyroscope  performing at 1.25 mA (up to 1.6 kHz ODR) in high- performance mode and enabling always-on low-power  features for an optimal motion experience for the  consumer.

The LSM6DS3 supports main OS requirements, offering real, virtual and batch sensors with 8 kbyte for dynamic data batching. ST’s family of MEMS sensor modules leverages the  robust and mature manufacturing processes already  used for the production of micromachined  accelerometers and gyroscopes.

The various sensing elements are manufactured using specialized micromachining processes, while the IC  interfaces are developed using CMOS technology that  allows the design of a dedicated circuit which is  trimmed to better match the characteristics of the  sensing element.

The LSM6DS3 has a full-scale acceleration range of  ±2/±4/±8/±16g and an angular rate range of ±125/±245/±500/±1000/±2000 dps. High robustness to mechanical shock makes the LSM6DS3 the preferred choice of system designers for the creation and manufacturing of reliable products.

The LSM6DS3 is available in a plastic land grid array  (LGA) package.
