STIM210 IMU Module, Micro

Gyroscopes measure the spacecraft’s spin rate about an axis, allowing the spacecraft to precisely measure its rate of rotation, a critical component of the attitude determination and control system. The STIM210 module combines an off the shelf 3-axis MEMS IMU package with a Terran control board.

Function

The IMU, or inertial measurement unit does what the name implies – it measures the linear acceleration and rotational rate of the satellite. This IMU accomplishes this task through a 3-axis gyro module.
