Does lsm6dsox provide some pin similar as NRST for hardware reset?

Besides the SW_Reset in CTRL_3 register, can we also do the hardware reset for lsm6dsox through some pins? Or the power gate is only option we can use?

The chip worked perfectly on our device, however, in some rare cases, the registers, including whoami register, is not accessible. So we want to check if hardware reset is possible for this chip. thanks!

Hi @YYuan.1​ , I believe that the only way to "hard" reset the chip is the power cycle. The only other way is the soft reset. But did you investigate the reason for the memory reading issue that sometimes occur?
