KOP Gyro Source

[mabster314]

I've been trying to find a source for the gyro board that's been in the KOP for several years. I was able to find the actual chip (adxrs652bbgz-rl), but was not able to find the board for it. Does anyone know where I could find this part?

I've been trying to find a source for the gyro board that's been in the KOP for several years. I was able to find the actual chip (adxrs652bbgz-rl), but was not able to find the board for it. Does anyone know where I could find this part?Those old gyro boards are one-offs and almost impossible to find unless you know a team that's been hoarding them for some reason. (Hi!) If that chip is exactly what you need, you might try the eval board from digikey (http://www.digikey.com/product-search/en?mpart=EVAL-ADXRS652Z&vendor=505). If all you need is an easy to use analog gyro, there's a 300 deg/sec option from RobotShop (http://www.robotshop.com/en/300s-single-axis-gyro-sensor.html) or a 1000deg/sec option from Vex (http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexedr/products/accessories/electronics/276-2333.html).
