LSM6DSO iNEMO™ Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)

STMicroelectronics' LSM6DSO iNEMO IMU: 3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope

Image of STMicroelectronics LSM6DSO iNEMO™ Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)STMicroelectronics' LSM6DSOxxx is a family of system-in-package featuring a 3D digital accelerometer and a 3D digital gyroscope. The LSM6DSO boosts performance at 0.55 mA in high-performance mode and enabling always-on low-power features for an optimal motion experience for the consumer.

The LSM6DSO supports main OS requirements, offering real virtual and batch sensors with 9 kbytes for dynamic data batching. The STMicroelectronics family of MEMS sensor modules leverage the robust and mature manufacturing processes already used to produce micromachined accelerometers and gyroscopes.

The various sensing elements are manufactured using specialized micromachining processes, while the IC interfaces are developed using CMOS technology that allows the design of a dedicated circuit which is trimmed to better match the characteristics of the sensing element.

The LSM6DSO has a full-scale acceleration range of ±2 g, ±4 g, ±8 g, and ±16 g and an angular rate range of ±125 dps, ±250 dps, ±500 dps, ±1000 dps, and ±2000 dps. The LSM6DSO fully supports EIS and OIS applications as the module includes a dedicated configurable signal processing path for OIS and auxiliary SPI, configurable for both the gyroscope and accelerometer.

High robustness to mechanical shock makes the LSM6DSO the preferred choice of system designers for the creation and manufacturing of reliable products. The LSM6DSO is available in a plastic land grid array (LGA) package.

The LSM6DSO32X is a system-in-package featuring a 3D digital accelerometer at 32 g and a 3D digital gyroscope, boosting power performance at 0.55 mA in high-performance mode and enabling always-on low-power features for an optimal motion experience in wearable, hard-fall detection, navigation, and asset tracking applications.

The LSM6DSO16IS is a system-in-package featuring a 3-axis digital accelerometer and a 3-axis digital gyroscope, boosting performance at 0.59 mA in high-performance mode and enabling always-on low-power features for optimal motion results in personal electronics and IoT solutions. The LSM6DSO16IS embeds a new ST category of processing, ISPU (intelligent sensor processing unit) to support real-time applications that rely on sensor data. The ISPU is an ultra-low-power, high-performance programmable core which can execute signal processing and AI algorithms in the edge. The main benefits of the ISPU are C programming and an enhanced ecosystem with libraries and 3rd party tools/IDE.
