The signature features of the G50Z are our low noise, impressive bias over temperature performance, low power consumption, excellent g-sensitivity and light weight. The unit is highly durable and can withstand environmental vibration and shock typically associated with commercial aircraft requirements. The unit has no inherent wear-out modes for long life and the rate output is also free from bias steps.

The MEMS G50Z offers a standard rate range of ±020°, ±100°, ±175° or ±350°/sec. Other rate ranges are available. The G50Z is designed for automotive testing, commercial aircraft applications, platform and antenna stabilization and pointing, general aviation as well as laboratory use. The G50Z is ideal where excellent bias over temperature performance, low noise, low power consumption, low g-sensitivity, light weight and rugged durability are desired for commercial environments and applications.
