<p>A laser gyro configuration and control (10) using a microprocessor (120). The microprocessor (120) has a high speed peripheral transaction system (201) which communicates through a high speed Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) (202) to a serial to parallel converter (212) through a five Byte first in first out (FIFO) (216) to an external system processor (224). The external system processor (224) sends information in a serial fashion through a single byte parallel to serial converter (208) to the high speed UART (202). Various information including gyro parameter load commands, gyro control commands, gyro status commands, and gyro calibration and diagnostic commands are sent over channels. The system provides a high speed method of controlling the laser gyro (10) and configuring it with a processor with serial transmit and receive lines.</p> |
