InvenSense® Announces World’s Highest Performance OIS Gyroscope at a Breakthrough 0.5 mm Height

Industry’s Thinnest Form Factor for Smartphones
and IoT Devices
InvenSense, Inc., (NYSE:INVN), a leading provider of MEMS sensor
platform solutions, announced its 4th generation of digital 2-axis
gyroscopes for Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) in smartphones and
drones. InvenSense, the technology market leader and the #1
gyroscope provider to the OIS market, has again set the standard
with a family of 2-axis gyroscopes, including the ICG-1020S and
ICG-1020P at 2.3x2.3x0.75mm and the ICG-1021S and ICG-1021P at an
industry leading 0.5 mm height for a gyroscope. The lower height
matches the most popular companion OIS controllers out on the
market today, allowing camera module makers to dramatically reduce
the module thickness facilitating the continued development of the
thinnest smartphones and IoT devices.
The ICG-1020P and ICG-1021P families of InvenSense OIS
gyroscopes are the highest performance MEMS sensors in the market
with the widest bandwidth and lowest rate noise of 3.5 mdps/√Hz
available today. Each of the OIS sensors supports integrated
temperature sensors with advanced temperature compensation
algorithms that allow low bias drift for long exposure times
despite significant heat from the image sensor. The combination of
these key parameters enables extended exposure times never before
possible in a smartphone camera. Every sensor supports one percent
max sensitivity tolerance to cut up to two minutes from OIS module
production time without use of shake tables widely used to reduce
the large sensitivity error of standard gyroscopes. Both the
ICG-1020 and ICG-1021 families further allow efficient
manufacturing by supporting ultrasonic wash methods, commonly used
post-component mounting to remove solder particles from affecting
the image sensor and lens assemblies.
“With image quality being a key differentiator in today’s
smartphones and IoT devices, InvenSense continues to pioneer small
form factor, high performance gyroscopes dedicated for Optical and
Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS),” stated Mehran Ayat, senior
director, motion and sound products at InvenSense. “Our performance
has awarded us the most OEM wins with the most respected digital
SLR camera brands in the market today, and has established
InvenSense as the gyroscope of choice for all OIS modules for high
end smartphones.”
This ICG-1020 family is in production and expected to ship in
smartphones in Q1’16. The 0.5 mm height ICG-1021 gyros are sampling
now with production in Q2’16. InvenSense is exhibiting in booth
#36217 in South Hall 4 at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show
taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada from January 6 - 9, 2016. To
