ADNS-3550 Low Power LED Integrated Slim Mouse Sensor

Data Sheet

The ADNS-3550 LED optical mouse sensor is a small form factor SFF LED illuminated navigation system.

The ADNS-3550 is a low-power optical navigation sensor. It has a new, low-power architecture and automatic power management modes, making it ideal for battery-and power-sensitive applications such as cordless input devices.

The ADNS-3550 is capable of high-speed motion detection up to 20 ips and 8g. In addition, it has an onchip oscillator and integrated LED to minimize external components.

The ADNS-3550, along with the ADNS-3150-001 lens, form a complete and compact mouse tracking system. There are no moving parts which means high reliability and less maintenance for the end user. In addition, precision optical alignment is not required, facilitating high volume assembly.

The sensor is programmed via registers through a fourwire serial port. It is packaged in a 16 I/O surface mountable package.

Theory of Operation

The ADNS-3550 is based on Optical Navigation Technology, which measures changes in position by optically acquiring sequential surface images frames and mathematically determining the direction and magnitude of movement.

The ADNS-3550 contains an Image Acquisition System IAS , a Digital Signal Processor DSP , and a four wire serial port.

The IAS acquires microscopic surface images via the lens and illumination system. These images are processed by the DSP to determine the direction and distance of motion. The DSP calculates the Dx and Dy relative displacement values.

An external microcontroller reads the Dx and Dy information from the sensor serial port. The microcontroller then translates the data into PS2, USB, or RF signals before sending them to the host PC or game console.
