Re: Some 2007 KOP Gyro Performance Data

These measurements were taken because of robot rotation control problems - see

for more background on the software and analog setup and additional data/results.

Hope this is helpful to others.

You know.. I think the impedance on the analog devices's sensors are too high for the PIC's ADC. I've never seen the kit gyro-- does it include an op-amp, or some other means of lowering its output impedance, to allow the ADC to quickly get the gyro reading?
