Triple Axis Gyro LYPR540AH Breakout.jpg

One of the first triple axis gyros we've seen on the market! This is what we love to do - a simple breakout board for the triax LYPR540AH gyroscope, tested, and ready to go. Both 400dps and 1600dps outputs are brought out for all three channels.This board has an on-board 10k pull-down resistor to keep the gyro out of self test mode. You will normally attach to 5 wires: VCC/GND and 3 analog outputs (X/Y/Z), but the 4x amplified outputs are also available.Anyone else notice that ST has a typo on their datasheet - 'indipendant'? Glad we're not the only ones with bad speling.

Features:

  • 2.7 to 3.6V supply
  • 400 degree per second outputs
  • 1600 degree per second 4x amplified outputs
  • Self test pin
  • -3dB bandwidth @ 140Hz
