Scale factor (or sensitivity) errors represent a deviation in gyroscope sensitivity from expected values, which results in a nonunity gain between “true” angular rate and “perceived” angular rate. Scale factor errors can be caused by either an error in initial scale factor calibration or a drift in scale factor postcalibration due to a change in environmental conditions, such as a change in temperature or supply voltages, application of external mechanical stresses to the sensing element, or aging effects internal to the sensor, such as a change in cavity pressure of the vacuum packaged sensing element.
