The L3G462A is a low-power 3-axis angular rate sensor produced by ST. It features ±625dps full scale, a power supply voltage range of 2.4V to 3.6V, embedded power-down and sleep mode to save power consumption and shorten turn-on time, an integrated temperature sensor, an embedded low pass filter, high shock survivability, an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), ECOPACK® RoHS and “Green” compliance.
This document is a preliminary datasheet for the L3G462A, a low-power 3-axis angular rate sensor manufactured by STMicroelectronics. The device includes a sensing element and an IC interface that provides measured angular rate through three analog outputs. It is designed for applications such as gaming, virtual reality, motion control, and GPS navigation systems.
