g acceleration sensor and an ultra - low power, high precision triaxial magnetic field sensor. it allows measurements of acceleration and magnetic field in three perpendicular axes. performance and features of both sensing technol ogies are carefully tuned and perfectly match the demanding requirements of all 6 - axis mobile applications such as electronic compass, navigation or augmented reality. an evaluation circuitry (asic) converts the output of the micromechanical sensing struct ures (mems) to digital results which can be read out over the industry standard digital interfaces. package and interfaces of the bmc 1 5 0 have been designed to match a multitude of hardware requirements. as the sensor features an ultra - small footprint and a flat package, it is ingeniously suited for mobile applications. the bmc1 5 0 offers ultra - low voltage operation (v dd voltage range from 1.62v to 3.6v, v ddio voltage range 1.2v to 3.6v) and can be programmed to optimize functionality, performance a nd power consumption in customer specific applications. the programmable interrupt engine sets new standards in terms of flexibility. the bmc1 5 0 senses orientation, tilt, motion, shock, vibration and heading in cell phones, handhelds, computer peri pherals, man - machine interfaces, virtual reality features and game controllers. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 4 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ? b osch sensortec gmbh reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights. we reserve all rights of disposal su ch as copying and passing on to third parties. bosch and the symbol are registered trademarks of robert bosch gmbh, germany. note: specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. not intended for publication. index of contents 1. specification ................................ ................................ ................................ ........................ 7 1.1 c ompass electrical sp ecification ................................ ................................ ................. 7 1.2 a ccelerometer specifi cation ................................ ................................ ........................ 8 1.3 m agnetometer specific ation ................................ ................................ ....................... 11 2. absolute maximum ratings ................................ ................................ .......................... 15 3. b lock diagram ................................ ................................ ................................ ................... 16 4. functional descri ption ................................ ................................ ................................ . 17 4.1 s upply voltage and po wer management ................................ ................................ ..... 17 4.2 p ower modes ................................ ................................ ................................ ................. 17 4.2.1 a ccelerome ter power modes ................................ ................................ ................................ . 18 4.2.2 m agnetometer power mo des ................................ ................................ ................................ .. 22 4.2.3 BMC150 overall power consum ption ................................ ................................ .................... 25 4.3 s ensor data ................................ ................................ ................................ .................. 26 4.3.1 a ccelerati on data ................................ ................................ ................................ ................... 26 4.3.2 t emperature sensor ................................ ................................ ................................ ................ 27 4.3.3 m agnetic field data ................................ ................................ ................................ .................. 27 4.3.4 m agnetic field data t emperature compensat ion ................................ ................................ ... 29 4.4 s elf -

[sdi & sdo & sck & csb] high). the device contains a power on reset (por) generator for each of the sensor parts, accelerometer part and magnetometer part. it resets the logic part and the register values of the concerned asic after powering - on v d d and v ddio . please note, that all application specific settings which are not equal to the default settings (refer to register maps chapter 6.2 and 7.2 ), must be re - set to its designated values after por. there are no constraints on the sequence of switching on both supply voltages. in case the i2c interface is used, a direct electrical connection between v ddio supply and the ps pin is needed in order to ensure reliable protocol selection . for spi interface mode the ps pin must be directly connected to gnd. 4.2 power modes the bmc1 5 0 features separately configurable power modes for the accelerometer and the magnetometer part. the advantage is that different characteristics regarding optimum system power saving of the two sensor types are exploited, and that the accelerometer part may also be us ed alone in certain usage scenarios where no magnetic field data is required. in such an example, the magnetometer part is able to suspend and sav e power during the time in which it is not required. in the following chapters, power modes for both accelerom eter and magnetometer part are described. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 18 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

, edt when (0x12) sleeptimer_en is set to 1, the equidistant - sampling mode (est) is selected. the use of the est mode is recommended when the fifo is used since it ensures that equidistant samples are sampled into the fifo regardless of whether the active phase is extended by active in terrupt engines or interface activity. in est mode the sleep time t sleep,a is defined as shown in figure 4 . the fifo sampling time t sample ,a is the su m of the sleep time t sleep,a and the sensor data sampling time t ssmp,a . since interrupt engines can extend the active phase to exceed the sleep time t sleep,a , equidistant sampling is only guaranteed if the bandwidth has been chosen such that 1/(2 * bw) = n * t sleep,a where n is an integer. if this condition is infringed, equidistant sampling is not possible. once the sleep time has elapsed the device will store the next available sample in the fifo. this set - up condition is not recommended as it may result in timing jitter. figure 4 : timing diagram for low - power mode ?

normal mode: select ed channels are periodically measured according to settings set in user registers. after measurements are completed, output data is put into data registers and the device waits for the next measurement period, which is set by programmed output data rate (o dr). from normal mode, the user can return to sleep mode by setting opmode to 11 or by performing a soft reset (see chapter 7.6 ). suspend mode can be entered by setting power control bit to 0. ? forced mode (sing le measurement): when set by the host, the selected channels are measured according to settings programmed in user registers. after measurements are completed, output data is put into data registers, opmode register value returns to 11 and the device ret urns to sleep mode. the forced mode is useful to achieve synchronized operation between host microcontroller and bmc1 5 0 . also, different data output rates from the ones selectable in normal mode can be achieved using forced mode. figure 5 : magnetometer power mode transition diagram in active mode and normal operation, in principle any desired balance between output noise and active time (hence power consumption) can be adjusted by the repetition settings for x/y - a xis and z - axis and the output data rate odr. the average power consumption depends on the ratio of high current phase time (during data acquisition) and low current phase time (between datasheet e compass BMC150 page 24 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

flipcore signal path is verified by generating signals on - chip. these are processed through the signal path and the measurement result is compared to known thresholds. ? flipcore (x and y) bondwires to asic are checked for connectivity ? flipcore (x and y) bondwires and mems are checked for shorts ? hall sensor connectivity is checked for open and shorted connections ? hall sensor signal path and hall sensor element offset are checked for overflow. to perform a self test, the s ensor must first be put into sleep mode (opmode = 11). self - test mode is then entered by setting the bit self test (register 0x4c bit0 ) to 1. after performing self test, this bit is set back to 0. when self - test is successful, the corresponding sel f - test result bits are set to 1 (x - self - test register 0x42 bit0 , y - self - test register 0x44 bit0 , z - self - test register 0x46 bit0 ). if self - test fails for an axi s, the corresponding result bit returns 0. advanced self test advanced self test performs a verification of the z channel signal path functionality and sensitivity. an on - chip coil wound around the hall sensor can be driven in both directions with a calibrated current to generate a positive or negative field of around 100 t. advance d self test is an option that is active in parallel to the other operation modes. the only difference is that during the active measurement phase, the coil current is enabled. the recommended usage of advanced self test is the following: 1. set sleep mode 2. di sable x, y axis 3. set z repetitions to desired level 4. enable positive advanced self test current 5. set forced mode, readout z and r channel after measurement is finished 6. enable negative advanced self test current 7. set forced mode, readout z and r channel after measurement is finished 8. disable advanced self test current (this must be done manually) 9. calculate difference between the two compensated field values. this difference should be around 200 t with some margins. 10. perform a soft reset of manually restore desi red settings please refer to the corresponding application note for the exact thresholds to evaluate advanced self - test. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 32 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

(0x2a) tap_shock any slope exceeding (0x2b) tap_th after the first event is ignored. contrary to this, within the duration of (0x2a) tap _quiet no slope exceeding (0x2b) tap_th must occur, otherwise the first event will be cancelled. 4.7.6.1 single tap detection a single tap is detected and the single tap interrupt is generated after the combined durations of (0x2a) tap_shock and (0x2a) tap_quiet , if the corresponding slope conditions are fulfilled. the interrupt is cleared after a delay of 12.5 ms. 4.7.6.2 double tap detection a double tap interrupt is generated if an event fulfilling the conditions for a single tap occurs within the set duration in (0x 2a) tap_dur after the completion of the first tap event. the interrupt is automatically cleared after a delay of 12.5 ms. 4.7.6.3 selecting the timing of tap detection for each of parameters (0x2a) tap_shock and (0x2a) tap_quiet two values are selectable. by writing 0 (1) to bit (0x2a) tap_shock the duration of (0x2a) tap_shock is set to 50 ms (75 ms). by writing 0 (1) to bit (0x2a) tap_quiet the duration of (0x2a) tap_quiet is set to 30 ms (20 ms). the length of (0x2a) tap_dur can be selected by setting the (0x2a) tap_dur bits according to table 17 : table 17 : selection of tap_dur (0x2a) tap_dur length of tap_dur 000b 50 ms 001b 100 ms 010b 150 ms 011b 200 ms 100b 250 ms 101b 375 ms 110b 500 ms 111b 700 ms datasheet e compass BMC150 page 45 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

2 ms. therefore, possible delay times range from 2 ms to 512 ms. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 52 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ? b osch sensortec gmbh reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights. we reserve all rights of disposal su ch as copying and passing on to third parties. bosch and the symbol are registered trademarks of robert bosch gmbh, germany. note: specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. not intended for publication. 4.7.10 high - g interrupt this interrupt is based on the comparison of acceleration data against a high - g threshold for the detection of shock or other high - acceleration events. the high - g interrupt is enabled (disabled) per axis by writing 1 (0) to bits (0x17) high_en_x , (0x17) high_en_y , and (0x17) high_en_z , respectively. the high - g threshold is set through the (0x26) high_th register. the meaning of an lsb of (0x26) high_t h depends on the selected g - range: it corresponds to 7.81 mg in 2g - range, 15.63 mg in 4g - range, 31.25 mg in 8g - range, and 62.5 mg in 16g - range (i.e. increment depends from g - range setting). a hysteresis can be selected by setting the (0x24) high_hy bits. analogously to (0x26) high_th , the meaning of an lsb of (0x24) high_hy is g - range dependent: it corresponds to an acceleration difference of 125 mg in 2g - range, 250 mg in 4g - range, 500 mg in 8g - range, and 1000mg in 16g - range (as well, increment depends fro m g - range setting). the high - g interrupt is generated if the absolute value of the acceleration of at least one of the enabled axes (or relation) is higher than the threshold for at least the time defined by the (0x25) high_dur register. the interrupt i s reset if the absolute value of the acceleration of all enabled axes (and relation) is lower than the threshold minus the hysteresis for at least the time defined by the (0x25) high_dur register. in bit (0x09) high_int the interrupt status is stored. th e relation between the content of (0x25) high_dur and the actual delay of the interrupt generation is delay [ms] = [( 0x22) low_dur + 1] ? 2 ms. therefore, possible delay times range from 2 ms to 512 ms. 4.7.10.1 axis and sign information of high - g interrupt the axis which triggered the interrupt is indicated by bits (0x0c) high_first_x , (0x0c) high_first_y , and (0x0c) high_first_z . the bit corresponding to the triggering axis contains a 1 while the other bits hold a 0. these bits are cleared together with clearing the interrupt status. the sign of the triggering acceleration is stored in bit (0x0c) high_sign . if (0x0c) high_sign = 0 (1), the sign is positive (negative). datasheet e compass BMC150 page 53 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

fifo mode: in fifo mode the acceleration data of the selected axes are stored in the buffer memory. if enabled, a watermark interrupt is triggered when the buffer has filled up to a configurable level. the buffer will be continuously filled until the fill leve l reaches 32 frames. when it is full the data collection is stopped, and all additional samples are ignored. once the buffer is full, a fifo - full interrupt is generated if it has been enabled. ? stream mode: in stream mode the acceleration data of the selec ted axes are stored in the buffer until it is full. the buffer has a depth of 31 frames. when the buffer is full the data collection continues and oldest entry is discarded. if enabled, a watermark interrupt is triggered when the buffer is filled to a conf igurable level. once the buffer is full, a fifo - full interrupt is generated if it has been enabled. ? bypass mode: in bypass mode, only the current sensor data can be read out from the fifo address. essentially, the fifo behaves like the stream mode with a depth of 1. compared to reading the data from the normal data registers, the advantage to the user is that the packages x, y, z are from the same timestamp, while the data registers are updated sequentially and hence mixing of data from different axes can occur. the primary fifo operating mode is selected with register (0x3e) fifo_mode according to 00b for bypass mode, 01b for fifo mode, and 10b for stream mode. writing to register (0x3e) clears the buffer content and resets the fifo - full and water mark interrupts. when reading register (0x3e) fifo_mode always contains the current operating mode. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 62 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?

(0x21) reset_int or the entire (0x14) soft reset register, and rea d as value 0. datasheet e compass BMC150 page 65 confidential bst - BMC150 - ds00 0 - 0 3 | revision 0. 4 | february 20 1 3 bosch sensortec ?
