I looked at the site too and this one is most like the KOP Gyro (although it is 300 deg/s as opposed to 250 deg/s KOP)

Note that the wires for 5V (red) and gnd (black) need to be swapped on a standard PWM cable

My team makes our own out of Analog Devices Evaluation Board Gyros, but we have been doing that for many years (started when the KOP gyros were not very good), and I wouldn't recommend starting that practice now. I recommend the KOP gyro (which are good Analog Devices chips now). It is easy to wire, already works with the Gyro Class (sensitivity is set) and you get a new one in the KOP every year .
