However, most commercially available gyro-based Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) provide measurement ranges limited to approximately \u00b12000\u00b0\/s, which may be insufficient for high-speed spinning platforms such as spin-stabilized satellites and drilling systems. This work presents the design, implementation, calibration, and validation of a complete Data Acquisition System (DAS) based on the ADXRS649 analog gyroscope, supporting angular rates up to \u00b120,000\u00b0\/s. The system integrates a 12-bit ADC within a dsPIC33 microcontroller, high-speed nvSRAM for continuous logging, and firmware enabling sensor self-testing, memory checks, synchronized sampling, and onboard processing. Operating at a configurable sampling frequency of 50 Hz, the proposed system provides approximately 20 min of continuous data recording. Custom hardware, including multilayer PCB design, signal conditioning, power management, a rugged metallic enclosure, and polyurethane potting, enhances mechanical robustness for operation under vibration and shock. Laboratory calibration over the angular-rate range of \u00b1980\u00b0\/s quantified the gyroscope bias and scale factor, while experimental validation using a high-speed rotary machine demonstrated stable rolling measurements and reliable data integrity at angular rates exceeding 2000\u00b0\/s. The results demonstrate that the proposed analog gyro-based DAS provides a robust and cost-effective solution for ultra-high-spin applications and future multi-sensor integration.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s26165083","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,11]],"date-time":"2026-08-11T08:09:36Z","timestamp":1786435776000},"page":"5083","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Design, Implementation and Calibration of Analog Gyro-Based Angular Rate Data Acquisition System for High-Spinning Rotation Rate Applications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8749-424X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ahmed","family":"Radi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mobile Multi-Sensor Systems (MMSS) Research Group, Calgary, AB T2N 1N4, Canada"},{"name":"Technical Research Center, Cairo 11477, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-3694-2620","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mostafa","family":"Mohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mobile Multi-Sensor Systems (MMSS) Research Group, Calgary, AB T2N 1N4, Canada"},{"name":"Technical Research Center, Cairo 11477, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2415-3119","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shady","family":"Zahran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mobile Multi-Sensor Systems (MMSS) Research Group, Calgary, AB T2N 1N4, Canada"},{"name":"Technical Research Center, Cairo 11477, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3498","DOI":"10.1039\/D4AN00182F","article-title":"Recent Advancements in Physical and Chemical MEMS Sensors","volume":"149","author":"Tanaka","year":"2024","journal-title":"Analyst"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"230419","DOI":"10.1007\/s13320-023-0693-x","article-title":"MEMS and MOEMS Gyroscopes: A Review","volume":"13","author":"Huang","year":"2023","journal-title":"Photonic Sens."},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Xuan, J., Zhu, T., Peng, G., Sun, F., Dong, D., Xuan, J., Zhu, T., Peng, G., Sun, F., and Dong, D.
