DSP-3000 FOG
High-performance, Single-axis Fiber Optic Gyro
IMPROVED SPECIFICATION
Superior Performance in a Single Package
The workhorse of EMCORE’s single-axis Fiber Optic Gyro (FOG) series,
EMCORE’s new improved specification DSP-3000 offers proven performance
in a wide range of applications. Its compact and robust design, coupled with a
choice of analog, digital, and RS-232 outputs, makes the DSP-3000 the most
versatile fiber optic gyro available and an ideal solution for guidance and sta-
bilization, low-cost inertial measurement units (IMUs), integrated GPS/INS, and
AHRS.
The DSP-3000 uses EMCORE’s patented Digital Signal Processing (DSP) electronics.
EMCORE’s breakthrough DSP design overcomes the limitations of analog signal
processing, virtually eliminating temperature-sensitive drift and rotation errors.
Key Features In addition, EMCORE’s DSP technology offers significant performance improve-
• Improved bias vs. temperature and scale ments in such critical areas as scale factor and bias stability, scale factor lin-
factor specifications earity, turn-on to turn-on repeatability, and maximum input rate. Exceptional low
• Patented Digital Signal Processing noise (ARW), insensitivity to cross-axis error, and shock and vibration robust-
ness make the DSP-3000 a perfect fit for demanding industrial applications.
• Exceptional bias stability and linearity This performance, combined with the inherent simplicity and
• Excellent reliability reliability of our mature all-fiber optical circuit, establish the DSP-3000 as an
outstanding and affordable solution for motion sensing, stabilization, navigation,
• Choice of analog, digital, or
and precision pointing applications.
RS-232 output
• Single-axis, modular design for
multi-axis configurations
• Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)
product
Applications
• Antenna/radar/optics stabilization
• Gun/turret stabilization
• IMU, GPS/INS integration
Cameras mounted on aircraft require special stabilization to create clear images
or motion pictures, surveillance, and other applications. The EMCORE DSP-3000 is an
essential part of many of these systems.
Many mobile satellite communications
antennas rely on the EMCORE DSP-3000 for
accurate pointing and stabilization.
Precision, Performance, and Price
Fabricated from EMCORE’s proprietary E•Core® polarization tactical-grade inertial measurement systems. The noise spec-
maintaining fiber, the EMCORE DSP-3000 delivers superior trum of the DSP-3000 is exceptionally flat, lacking the discrete
precision and reliable performance at a lower cost than other noise components of mechanical gyros. With
comparable fiber optic and mechanical gyroscopes. Its no moving parts to maintain or replace, the DSP-3000 lasts
temperature stability and repeatability make it particularly well- longer, functions better, and yields significant product life cycle
suited for precision stabilization, GPS integration, and multi-axis savings.
