Overview

Objectives:

The GyroWing project was part of the global project “Smart Fixed Wing Aircraft” (SFWA), whose objectives addressed environmental issue (by increasing the performances of aircraft) and passenger comfort (in reducing noise level).

GyroWing represents an ASIC which aimed at integrating the overall electronic control required for achieving the most miniaturised gyrometer.

After a specification phase and the system modelling, the project enabled the realisation of this ASIC, including a high-resolution electronic part, and its characterisation after prototyping.

GyroWing aimed at providing high performances solutions, based on ultra-low noise analogue front-end, with all its required peripherals (such as HF carrier, compensation paths, voltage reference, regulators, high voltage features…) for enabling the most integrated solution. This resulted on a low volume, low weight and low bill of material final solution.

For achieving the highest TRL level for the ASIC, the project was based on the experience of participant on avionics and inertial measurement units, but also on industrialisation.
