LSM6DSL, LSM303AGR, LSM9DS1 temperature dependence

Posted on July 07, 2018 at 09:55I have conducted little research of temperature influence on accelerometr and gyroscope readings. The sensors were cooled to a negative temperature on celsius, and then heated under the IR lamp to approximately 50 deg...

VL53L1X: "Soldering the device on the customer board or adding a cover glass can introduce an offset in the ranging distance". Why does soldering the device on a board introduce an offset, and how much offset can it introduce?

A VL53L1X has been soldered on a board, and the result I get from ranging are offset by at least 15%. Can it be caused by the soldering itself? Will calibration remove the offset?

VL53L1X device address storage

Posted on July 01, 2018 at 10:43Can anybody tell me if the VL53L1X device address is stored in volatile or non-volatile memory? I have multiple sensors in application and i don't want to have reset/shudown lines for every single one of them just for...

Vibration measurements

Posted on July 10, 2018 at 13:52Hello,I would like to ask you for suggestion. I would like to monitor vibration of the motor in my system. What should I use MEMS microphone or 3-axis  Accelerometer  or Both? I am using stepper motor to  drive a pump...

Does the LSM6DS3 IMU require temperature compensation?

Posted on July 10, 2018 at 16:06I am developing a project with the LSM6DS3 IMU sensor. I found that the data I got is a little bit different at different time of the day. The test setup is basically the same. I suspect the differences is due to the ...
