Current consumption vs supply voltage LSM6DSM

Hy,I need to design a power consumption optimized (battery based) system using the LSMDSM. I cannot find the current consumption vs voltage in the datasheets. I can either use battery voltage directly (3.6V) or use a high efficiency DCDC (i.e. TI TPS...

VL53L0X. What function or algorithm should I use to read the values from the sensor VL53L0X with protective glass? What parameter should I change with this?

Hello everyone! I use an obstacle detection sensor VL53L0X. I had a problem using protective glass. I use VL53L0X_API_v1.0.2.4823_externalx. When I put the glass in front of the sensor with the correct clearances, I get a strange distance. When ther...

FIFO sampling of LSM6DSL and "missing" samples

I have programmed the LSM6DSL to a sample rate ODR of 26Hz, and set the FIFO ODR to 26Hz (I've also tried much higher FIFO ODR rates). I am only sampling the accelerometer. Every second, I read the FIFO and am expecting to find 26 samples. Or, at ...

HTS221 does it works or does it only have manufacturing defects?

Hello everyone, i apologize for my bad English. I use HTS221 in one of my products, i tested it on evaluation-board and it worked perfectly so i decided to use it in production and I already produced 400 PCB in 3 years. But it doesn't work! the tempe...

My Test Code to Initialize LSM6DSM Gryo to Observe Pulses on INT1 coming from the Device does not work - Any Suggestions to Fix?

Here is my test code, that I single-step to observe the reg_status first, then write what I think should start the device, but I see nothing on INT1. Each reg_status read show the correct data (same as what I am writing):   reg_status = ReadReg(LSM6D...

Resolved! Tilt angle sensor

We are looking for a sensor that can identify tilt angle with respect to gravity. I have been looking around at 3-axis accelerometers but cannot be sure if these will work as a tilt angle sensor. Please advise.NOTE: This question and answer originate...
