The CRS39 series high performance sensors offers a dynamic range of ±25 °/ sec and four variants of the CRH series sensors are available to accommodate user dynamic range requirements from ±25 °/sec to ±400 °/sec.

Traditionally MEMS gyroscopes have exhibited performance that was an order of magnitude greater than good FOG de- vices. The Silicon Sensing MEMS gyro- scopes are now delivering performance levels comparable to FOG devices.

These high performance product of- ferings have expanded the Silicon Sens- ing MEMS inertial sensor capability to include gyro compassing applications.

Using these sensors, specifi cally CRS39, in a gyro compassing application it is typical to see <1° of pointing accuracy within 1 minute and <0.2° of pointing accuracy within 12 minutes.

Silicon Sensing will continue to expand these capabilities through continued de- velopment efforts to gain additional high performance improvements in the VSG3
