SENSOR HUB APPLICATION SYSTEMS
A sensor hub is a combination of a low-power MCU and embedded software that provides access to multiple sensors for use in
various applications. The hub executes motion sensor fusion, provides sensor drivers, motion algorithms, and provides real-
time information to offload the power hungry application processor (AP). Emerging sensor hubs for smart devices enable
efficient processing.
The ICM-30630 serves as an intelligent sensor hub that allows the data collection and processing of such data from internal and
external sensors. The multi-cores of ICM-30630 are designed to offload computing and processing tasks from the AP, thereby
saving system power and streamlining the overall performance. The device also integrates industry leading InvenSense 6-axis
Accel and Gyro MEMS.
