STMicroelectronics has introduced the IIS3DWB10IS, a next-generation intelligent vibration sensor designed to enhance industrial condition monitoring through high accuracy, reliability, and energy efficiency. Equipped with ST’s MEMS technology and their fancy ISPU 2.0, the new device processes digital signals and runs AI right at the sensing part. This means quicker and better analysis of machinery health. It can handle big vibrations and shakes, even up to 200g at more than 10 kHz, while dealing with extreme heat – up to 125°C. Because keeping track of vibrations is super important for maintaining machines and catching problems early on, this sensor helps keep stuff running smoothly. This reduces unexpected stoppages and boosts productivity in factories.

“Our industrial MEMS vibration sensor delivers the dynamic range and bandwidth needed for high-end applications and extends the advantages of ST in-sensor digital processing. Integrating the ISPU 2.0, with its new hardware accelerators for fast signal processing and AI inference, sharpens equipment-wear recognition while reducing latency and power consumption,“ said Simone Ferri, APMS executive VP MEMS sub-group. “Industries can expect a new generation of condition monitoring sensors, the first compelling alternative to piezosensor, that is lightweight, easy to fit and design, ultra-accurate, and energy efficient enough for battery-powered operations.” “The IIS3DWB10IS delivers unique properties for our target markets and environments. Its high dynamic range, wide bandwidth, and high-temperature capability, combined with ease of adoption and a cost-effective, simplified circuit design, allowed us to replace the incumbent piezosensor technology,” said Andrea Torcelli, Chief Technology Officer at Bonfiglioli S.P.A.
