LSM9DS1 and LSM6DS3 accelerometer resolution

Hi

Im having some trouble confirming whether the resolution from the accelerometer in the LSM9DS1 and also LSM6DS3 is actually 16 bits ?

The datasheet for both sensors say the output resolution is indeed 16 bits, but in an ST catalog online I found a line saying that the gyroscope has 16 bits but the accelerometer has only 14 bits.

Can anyone please confirm? we are going to production now and this info is vital. Cheers!

The LSM9DS1 has 16 bits for both accelerometer and gyro. Don't know about the other one. Please see my thread about experiences with LSM9DS1 before deciding whether or not to use this chip.
