6.0 Dead Reckoning input specications
6.1 Gyro input specication
The specications shown in Table 6‑1 apply to the Jupiter 20D only.
Characteristics Value Unit
input max voltage range max +5, min 0 VDC
input resistance nominal 18.2 kΩ
nominal bias at zero angular velocity 2.5 VDC
nominal scale factor 22.2 mV per degrees/s
linearity ± 0.5 max %
angular resolution 0.055 degrees/s
max gyro angular rate ± 80 degrees/s
Note that clockwise rotation should cause the input to rise
Table 6‑1: Gyro input specications
At the time of publication, recommended manufacturers of gyros are as follows:
Murata ENV series
Panasonic EWTS series
(Navman takes no responsibility for the use of these gyros in an application.)
6.2 Wheel tick rate
The wheel tick rate is 4 kHz maximum, 1 Hz minimum.
6.3 Fwd/Rev input sense
The fwd/rev input sense is: LOW=forward, HIGH=reverse. External pull down is required if this
input is not used.
