STIM300 IMU

non-GPS AIDED INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT

STIM300 is a small, tactical grade, low weight, high performance non-GPS aided Inertial Measurement Unit. It contains 3 highly accurate MEMS gyros, 3 high stability accelerometers and 3 inclinometers. The IMU is factory calibrated and compensated over its entire operating temperature range.

STIM300 is a cost-effective ITAR free solution for systems that only had FOGs as an alternative when reaching for the performance level of that STIM300 can offer.

Each axis is factory calibrated for bias, sensitivity and compensated for temperature effects to provide high-accuracy measurements. The unit runs off a single +5V supply and communicates via a RS422 interface. The use of a 32-bit RISC ARM microcontroller provides flexibility in the configuration, like choice of output unit, sampling frequency, LP filter -3dB frequency and RS422 bit-rate and protocol parameters. For more advanced users, STIM277H may be put in Service Mode. In this mode all the configuration parameters can be temporarily or permanently changed by overwriting the current settings in the flash memory. Service Mode also provides the ability to perform single measurements, perform diagnostics and obtain a higher detail in the status byte.

Full-Scale Range & Features

The STIM300 family of IMUs has a full-scale angular rate input range of ±400 °/s and the output is
capped at ±480 °/s. Standard acceleration input range is ±10 g. Axis
misalignment of as little as 1 mrad is achieved by electronic axis alignment.
All of the IMUs in the STIM300 family product line require a single 5 V power supply and has a digital serial RS422
interface.
User-Selectable Output Formats
The STIM300 family of IMUs offers several user selectable output formats and sample rates for
gyro and accelerometer data:
- Angular Rate
- Incremental Angle
- Average Angular Rate
- Integrated Angle
- Acceleration
- Integrated Velocity
- Incremental Velocity
- Average Acceleration
Versatile Applications

The STIM300 IMU is well suited for stabilization, guidance and navigation
applications in Industrial, Aerospace and Defence markets. The design is
field proven in Military Land Navigators, Missile systems, Target acquisition
systems, Airborne surveillance, DIRCM, Remote Weapon Systems, Launch
vehicles and Satellites.
In many applications, STIM300 can competitively replace IMUs based on
Fiber Optic Gyros (FOGs) and improve system performance with respect to
robustness, reliability, size, weight, power and cost.
