Description
STI proposes to design a high performance Front End ASIC using the Trusted Tower-Jazz 130nm process to drive both piezoelectric and capacitive MEMS gyroscopes as specified in the solicitation with Angular Random Walk (ARW) less than 0.001 deg/hr^(1/2), less than 1ppm variation over -40C to 80C, 100db dynamic range and 10VDC at 30mA, tunable with drive and sense frequency ranging from 1-30kHz, with open and close loop quadrature cancellation. The part will be designed using our proprietary 1D analog design technology, ADONIS. STI will use its Analog Straight Line technology using 1D gridded layouts which eliminate serious problems encountered in subwavelength lithography. The 1D methodology has been shown to produce a gate variability of
