DESCRIPTION
The CASTOR series model, CSTR-GYR1200 is a high-end tactical class gyro module consisting
of high-performance triaxial Gyroscope sensor based on latest MEMS technology. This is
equipped with a high-speed processor that runs the digital signal processing algorithms de-
livering control grade inertial measurement data. The gyro module output is available over a
RS422 interface. Its rugged and modular design makes it suitable for integration with control
computers and other application hardware.
The sensing elements of each axis are factory-calibrated for bias, mis-alignment and are
compensated for temperature effects to be usable across the entire operating temperature
range. The miniature gyro module, CSTR-GYR1200 offers 0.5 °/hr bias instability perfor-
mance and is suitable for inertial guidance and control applications where size is the con-
straint.
