While accelerometer-gyro combination or combo sensors have been around for a few years, the high 
power consumption of the gyro portion has limited their adoption rate. With a newly developed, proprietary technology, Kionix has dramatically lowered the power consumption of the gyroscope. The company’s KXG07 and the KXG08 combos can provide full high-speed operation of the onboard accelerometer, gyroscope, and temperature sensor at industry-leading low-power consumption levels as low as 0.2mA.
The smaller footprint KXG08 is packaged in a conventional 2.5mm x 3mm x 0.9mm 14-pin land grid array (LGA), and the KXG07 is offered in a 3mm x 3mm x 0.9mm 16-pin LGA package with a footprint compatible with many of Kionix’s discrete accelerometers.
