Epson – IMU M-G355QDG0 (SIL1): In the sensing domain, Epson offers a portfolio of IMUs, vibration sensors, accelerometers, and gyroscopes. These are based on Epson’s proprietary quartz sensor technology and are designed to deliver precise and stable measurement data.
Epson IMUs are compact, lightweight 6-axis sensors that provide high-resolution inertial data even under demanding environmental conditions. They operate reliably across temperature variations, shock, and vibration—at a significantly superior level compared to IMUs used in consumer devices such as mobile phones.
M-G355QDG0 at a glance
With the M-G355QDG0, Epson has expanded its IMU portfolio with a model designed for applications with enhanced functional safety requirements. This IMU complies with IEC 61508 SIL-1. It is based on the well-established M-G366PDG0 and retains Epson’s compact form factor of 24 × 24 × 10 mm. This enables easier upgrades of existing designs and reduces evaluation time.
Applications for the M-G355QDG0
Key is its compliance with IEC 61508-1:2010, IEC 61508-2:2010, and IEC 61508-3:2010 with SIL-1. This makes the M-G355QDG0 especially suitable for applications with high safety requirements.
