Connect an OEM-IMU-EG320N or OEM-IMU-EG370N Directly to an OEM7 Receiver Card

The information in this section applies to the OEM-IMU-EG320N (EG320N) and the OEM-IMU-EG370N (EG370N).

The OEM-IMU-EG320N and OEM-IMU-EG370N can connect directly to SPI capable OEM7 receivers, such as the OEM7600, OEM7700 or OEM7720, using a SPI connection. The SPI connection handles timing and data communication between the receiver and IMU.

The interface to the OEM-IMU-EG320N or OEM-IMU-EG370N must provide:

Reset IMU

RST must be high for the IMU to be active.

To enable the IMU when the receiver is powered on, connect this pin to Pin 1 or Pin 2 of the receiver connector through a 10 kΩ resistor (recommended).

Can also connect this pin to any stable 3.3 VDC power supply or output configuration to have more control over when IMU is enabled. When using this configuration note that:

  • pin 16 must be pulled low for greater than 100 ms to properly soft-reset the IMU

  • pin 16 has an internal 32-224 kΩ pull-up resistor

In the table above, the receiver pin numbers are for OEM7600, OEM7700 and OEM7720 receivers. For the location of the receiver card pins, refer to Technical Specifications.
