Inertial measurement unit JCS-7603

Overview
The inertial measurement unit (IMU) JCS-7603 is based on high-performance MEMS gyroscopes and accelerometers. Configuration and operation are supported via standard RS-232 or RS-422 digital interfaces. The unit provides gyro bias stability <0.1 °/h, angular random walk (ARW) <0.02 °/√h and accelerometer bias stability of 15 µg. An optional embedded GPS receiver is available on request.

Applications

• Commercial aviation motion control & sensing
• UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles)
• UUVs (unmanned underwater vehicles)

Distribution / Regulation
In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, ASC GmbH is the authorized distributor of high performance IMUs from Japan Aviation Electronics. There is a general export license for this product which means no individual export license from the Japanese government is needed.
