Painful trouble ,LIS3LV02DL output data suddenly changes at Low temperature(-10 Centigrade)

We are using LIS3LV02DL MEMS inertial sensor.

I have painful trouble that its output data suddenly?changes at Low temperature?around -10 Centigrade?.

We can't compensate?its output data at that point.

How do we compensate output data in this case?

Hello Watanabe,

Has this problembeen happening on more than one part?

The compensation in temperature should be linear, so I believe there must be some stress happening at package level.

The attached file shows the guidelines for application development that might aid your inquiry as well.

Could you please inform where are you located? That way we can address your issue with the local MEMS Application Engineer from ST.

Thank you,

Thiago

Hello Thiago

Thank you for the reply.

I reply to your questions.

-> Almost all parts have this problem.

But the temperature at this phenomenon happens is distributed.

Thank you,

Hello Thiago

Thank you for the reply.

Does PCB stress cause the phenomenon (=output data suddenlyã€€changes at Low temperature) or device specific?

Thank you,

Watanabe

Hello Thiago

Thank you for the reply.

If the phenomenon (output data suddenlyã€€changes at Low temperature) happens

at 0 Centigrade ,does water cause that?

Thank you,

Watanabe

Hello Watanabe,

Yes, water can be the source of your issue.

Please also verify the attached datasheet on the following items:

- Table 3

- Figures 16 to 23

I hope this information helps to better understand the problems that you are facing. Otherwise, I will be more than happy to support you on your development.

Thank you,

Thiago

Hello Thiago

Thank you for the reply.

We are using anti-humidity insulation coating for PCB.

Does it cause transfer PCB stress to sensor ?

Thank you,

Hello Thiago

Thank you for the reply.

We found gradually that insertion type connector cause this trouble.

We are soldering two steps.

1. reflow soldering for MEMS inertial sensor.

2. flow soldering for insertion type connector.

We used hand soldering for insertion type connector then the phenomenon (=output data suddenlyã€€changes at Low temperature)

disappeared.

Thank you,

Watanabe

Hello Watanabe,

that is great news! I am glad that you could address the issue by modifying your soldering process.

Please do let me know if there is anything else that I can do for you.

Thank you,

Thiago
