TDK introduces two MEMS sensors for consumer and industrial applications

     TDK announced at CES 2024 the launch of two high-performance MEMS sensors for consumer and industrial applications.
The new InvenSense SmartMotion ICM-42370-P is a 3-axis accelerometer for consumer applications that require low noise and high sensitivity. InvenSense SmartInduscial IIM-42653 is a high FSR, 6-axis IMU for industrial applications.

     The new SmartMotion ICM-42370-P accelerometer is ideal for iot applications, offering industry-leading low noise performance and a measurement range of up to ±16g. It features a 16-bit ADC for high acceleration sensitivity and supports various on-chip motion event/activity detection based on interrupts or register access without additional user programming. These features make it ideal for use cases such as home/industrial devices, security cameras, and consumer or medical wearables.

     "Next generation wearables and iot applications require accelerometers with low noise and high sensitivity. Today, we are adding a new 3-axis accelerometer to the SmartMotion portfolio to address this need." Song Li, director of product marketing at InvenSense, part of TDK Group. "It is compatible with our 6-axis IMUs and enables easy conversion between 3-axis and 6-axis solutions in customer applications."

     TDK also announced the full production of SmartInduscial IIM-42653, a 6-axis IMU (3-axis gyroscope + 3-axis accelerometer) that enables programmable digital output of ±4000 dps for gyroscopes and ±32g accelerometers. At the same time, ultra-low gyro noise is achieved. These technical features make the IIM-42653 ideal for applications that require robust, fast, and accurate performance, such as industrial or high-end AGVs, AMRs, and drones.

     "We launched the IIM-42653 in early 2023 and it is now fully in production and available to all customers through our distribution channels." Camilo Delgado, senior director of product marketing at InvenSense, part of the TDK Group.
