Fiber Optic Gyroscopes

EMCORE’s closed-loop Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) technology is designed for fast, accurate navigation and gyrocompassing, and
low noise line-of-sight stabilization. Our long-standing leadership in the development of highly-accurate defense and military-grade
fiber optic components has paved the way for the development of more accurate and economical FOG components.

EMCORE-Hawkeye EG-200 Fiber Optic Gyroscope
TM
The EMCORE-Hawkeye EG-200 Fiber Optic Gyro is a superior device in regards to weight and
TM
form factor for tactical applications. It incorporates fully-integrated optics and next-generation
Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) electronics that deliver higher accuracy, optical drift stability,
lower noise, greater efficiency and reliability, combined with low cost. The EG-200 can be calibrat-
ed internally for better thermal effect.

Features/Benefits Applications
n Closed-loop Design for Improved Drift Stability, n Platform, Camera and Antenna
Higher Linearity, and Greater Flexibility Stabilization
n Digital and Analog Outputs to Accommodate the n Robotic Control
Widest Variety of Installation Parameters n UAVs
n Bandwidth to 300 Hz n Ground Vehicle & Dismounted Soldier
n More Economical than Competing Systems n Spacecraft

EMCORE-Hawkeye EG-120 Fiber Optic Gyroscope
TM
The EMCORE-Hawkeye Series EG-120 FOG module is an ultra-compact, state-of-the-art design
TM
that is the smallest, most affordable closed-loop FOG available on the market today. At approximate-
ly 1/2 the weight with 1/3 the power requirements of current generation FOGs, the EG-120 delivers
the industry’s best Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) compared to competing products.

Features/Benefits Applications
n Smallest, Most Affordable Closed-Loop FOG Available n Platform, Camera, Antenna and Gun
Stabilization Systems
n Closed-Loop Design for Improved Drift Stability, Higher
Linearity, and Greater Flexibility n Robotic Control
n Fully-Integrated Optics and Next-Generation Field Pro- n UAVs
grammable Gate Array (FPGA) Electronics n Ground Vehicle & Dismounted Soldier
n Bandwidth to 250 Hz n Spacecraft

EMCORE Hawkeye EG-1300 Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG)
TM
TM
The EMCORE-Hawkeye EG-1300 Fiber Optic Gyro is a superior device in regards to weight and
form factor for navigational-grade applications. Its advanced integrated optics and closed-loop
FPGA electronics deliver much higher accuracy, lower noise, and greater efficiency than competing
technologies. The EG-1300 can be calibrated internally for better thermal effect and has both digital
and analog outputs, along with separation of the electronics from the FOG’s sensing coil assembly
to accommodate the widest variety of installation parameters.

Features/Benefits Applications
n Precise Navigation (1 mile/hour without GPS) n Navigational-Grade Applications
n Fast, Precise Gyrocompassing to 1 Milliradian n Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
Guidance
n Separate Electronics and Sensor Modules for Greater n Missile Guidance
Installation Flexibility
n Aeronautics and Aviations
n Bandwidth to 500 Hz
n More Economical than Competing Systems
