July 1, 2025 /SemiMedia/ — TDK Corporation has announced global availability of the InvenSense SmartAutomotive™ IAM-20680HV, a compact 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) designed for in-cabin automotive applications operating in extreme conditions up to +125 °C, with guaranteed performance up to +105 °C.
The IAM-20680HV combines a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer in a space-saving 3 x 3 x 0.75 mm³ LGA package, offering full pin and register compatibility with other TDK SmartAutomotive™ MEMS sensors. With a selectable full-scale gyroscope range starting at ±125 dps, the device delivers high-resolution sensing for enhanced navigation in cost-sensitive automotive systems.
Built with TDK’s automotive-grade design, the IAM-20680HV delivers ultra-low noise, excellent sensitivity consistency, and robust reliability. It targets a broad range of non-safety applications, including heads-up displays, telematics, navigation modules, door control systems, and crash recorders.
“The pace of innovation in automotive electronics demands scalable and cost-efficient sensing solutions,” said Alberto Marinoni, Senior Director of Automotive Product Marketing at InvenSense, a TDK Group company. “Our new IMU allows OEMs and Tier 1s to push the boundaries of performance without compromising on quality.”
Key specifications include:
- AEC-Q100 Grade 2 automotive qualification
- Extended operating temperature up to +125 °C
- 16-bit digital output for gyro and accelerometer
- Programmable full-scale ranges: Gyroscope (±125/250/500/1000 dps), Accelerometer (±2/4/8/16 g)
- Built-in self-test and digital filters
- Two configurable interrupt lines
- Final production testing at temperatures up to +105 °C
- PPAP and qualification data available upon request
