January 29, 2008 — InvenSense, which provides motion-sensing solutions for portable consumer electronics, has announced introduction of the IDG-1100 family of dual-axis gyroscopes, what the company claims is the world’s smallest solution at 4 x 5 x 1.2 mm.
InvenSense’s dual-axis gyroscopes, which integrate both the MEMS resonating structures and compensating complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) electronics at the silicon wafer level, is 25 percent smaller than any competing dual-axis gyro solution on the market today, according to a company news release.
