Hi jontrausti,
BNO055 data sheet had mentioned the modification in the year 2020.

Like I said in previous reply the design we are working with is from prior to this recommandation. Like you correctly pointed out, this recommandation came into play in 2020. I hope you realize that it is not realistic to throwaway thousands of pcb's because your recommandation has changed with no support material on why the change was made ... I'm sorry, but sounds like the change revision quality of Bosch is terrible and not something people can rely on - and therefore I am going to reject you resolution....
