Gyro Questions
Is the gyro already compensated for temperature, or should this be done manually? Also, what is the difference between the gyro this year (ADW22307) and last year (ADW22305, I think)? I could not find any differing datum between the two datasheets.

Re: Gyro Questions
Can't tell you the difference, but the fact that there is a temperature sensor onboard with its own output pin(s) tells me that temperature compensation is likely manual.

Re: Gyro Questions
I doubt that you would have to do it manualy. In any event the temperature difference isn't going to make verry much difference in the acuracy of your readings its not like were competing in vastly different temperatures than you'll be testing in.

If you want to temperature compensate, you will have to do so manually using the TEMP pin. |

Re: Gyro Questions
You have to do it manually, and you probably should.

It doesn't matter if the temperature changes between your workspace and the competition as long as the robot is power cycled between those two places. |

Re: Gyro Questions
Thus it would be a good idea not to mount the sensor too close to a source of heat (e.g. a motor).

However, we are having issues with the gyro not outputting correctly, and we assumed that it had to do with the temperature. Guess its back to troubleshooting. Thanks for the info though! |
