Chip of the Week: MAX21000

Hello Great Lakes Friends.  I wanted to share with you more details about the MAX21000 - Maxim Integrated's three axis gyroscope.  Its key benefits are that it operates off of 1.8V, has an internal supply for improved performance in a noisy system, and has the highest accuracy across temperature and aging.  So where could you use a gyroscope?  I included a few ideas of where they are used today:
  • Motion control, gaming
  • Navigation applications
  • OIS/EIS
  • Robotics
  • Health/sports  monitoring
  • Remote controllers
  • Toys
  • Wearable Sensors
 Below is a block diagram of the device and there is an evaluation kit available:

  1. It doesn't works !!!! It's good on paper but practically it isin't working. Even the support is not good. and the worst part is Maxim doesn't have any community to solve the issue.
