Tronics
High Performance MEMS Inertial Sensors for
Energy & Mining Applications
The system requirements for the energy and mining markets combine high reliability and high precision under extreme operating conditions. High performance and cost-effective sensing solutions based on MEMS technologies are a tangible alternative to bulky and expensive quartz accelerometers and FOG (Fiber Optic Gyros), demonstrating challenging performances at a fraction of their price, size and power consumption.
Miniature, digital and highly stable accelerometers and gyros
Small size
and light weight
High operating
temperature
High resistance to
shocks and vibrations
High robustness
and reliability
Excellent rejection of shocks and vibrations
Tronics designs and manufactures high performance digital MEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes that feature high bias stability and repeatability with excellent rejection of shock and vibrations, making them the ideal candidates for guidance of directional drilling tools, measurement while drilling (MWD), north-finding and surveying applications.
Tronics’ high performance MEMS inertial sensors are housed in a miniature, hermetic ceramic SMD package and feature a digital SPI output to reduce the footprint and cost compared to analog sensors.
Applications
