It has been designed for low power, highprecision 6- axis and 9-axis applications in mobile phones, tablets, wearable devices, remote controls, game controllers, head-mounted devices and toys. When accelerometer and gyroscope are in full operation mode, power consumption is typically 925 μA, enabling always-on applications in battery driven devices. The BMI160 offers a wide VDD voltage range from 1.71V to 3.6V and a VDDIO range from 1.2V to 3.6V, allowing the BM160 to be powered at 1.8V for both VDD and VDDIO.
Due to its built-in hardware synchronization of the inertial sensor data and its ability to synchronize data of external devices such as geomagnetic sensors, BMI160 is ideally suited for augmented reality, gaming and navigation applic ations, which require highly accurate sensor data fusion. The BMI160 provides high precision sensor data together with the accurate timing of the corresponding data. The timestamps have a resolution of only 39 μs.
In this configuration, the BMI160 controls the data acquisition of the extemal sensor and the synchronized data of all sensors is stored the register data and can be additionally stored in the built-in FIFO.
The integrated 1024 byte FIFO buffer supports low power applications and prevents data loss in non-real-time systems. The intelligent FIFO architecture allows dynamic reallocation of FIFO space for accelerometer, gyroscope and external sensors, respectively. For typical 6-DoF applications, this is sufficient for approx. 0.75s of data capture. In a typical 9-DoF application - including the geomagnetic sensor - this is sufficient for approx. 0.5s.
Like its predecessors, the BMI160 features an on-chip interrupt engine enabling low-power motion-based gesture recognition and context awareness.
