Bosch BMI260

BMI260 is an ultra low power IMU that combines precise acceleration and angular rate measurement with intelligent onchip motion- triggered interrupt features. The 6- axis sensor combines a 16- bit triaxial gyroscope and a 16- bit triaxial accelerometer in a compact 2.5 × 3.0 × 0.8 mm³ LGA package.

• BMI260 is the next- generation IMU targeting fast and accurate inertial sensing in smartphone and human machine interface (HMI) applications.
• The IMU provides highly accurate step counting, motion detection and is pin- to- pin compatible with the BMI160.
• BMI260 features Bosch's automotive- proven gyroscope technology.
• Significant improvements in BMI260 include the overall accelerometer performance, i.e. an extremely low zero- g offset and sensitivity error, low temperature drifts, robustness over PCB strain and a low noise density.
• BMI260 features the industry's first self- calibrating gyroscope using motionless CRT (Component Re- Trimming) functionality to compensate MEMS typical soldering drifts, ensuring post- soldering sensitivity errors down to ± 0.4%.
• Other key features of BMI260 include Hardware and TimeSync functions.
• BMI260 also supports a low- latency secondary interface with accelerometer and gyroscope data output, freely configurable for SPI or I2C interface operation and measurement range.
• Dual SPI configuration enables BMI260 to serve two SPI- based modules supporting stereo or 3D camera operation.

• Advanced gesture/activity and context recognition
• Optical and electronic image stabilization (OIS/EIS)
• Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)
• Location based services
• Augmented/virtual reality (AR/VR)
• Indoor navigation/pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR)
