    I downloaded the driver of bmx160 on the official website, but it is in read_ sensor_ It is found in data. C that the header file of #include "coins. H" is added, but I can't find "coins. H" in the driver folder. Where should I download the header file

    Hello Nigel_Zhu,

    After you download and install COINES software, you will find "coins.h".

    HELLO:

            I have a new question,I can read the chip ID and the value of the configured register, but I can't read the data and the value of the configured power register when I set the power mode to the normal mode, while the values of other registers can be read normally. How can I switch the sensor from the suspended mode to the normal working mode?

    Hello Nigel_Zhu,

    You could refer read sensor data example code from here: https://github.com/BoschSensortec/BMI160_driver/tree/master/examples/read_sensor_data

    HELLO,

      1. I can read the data of nine axes of bmx160, each axis occupies two bytes, but how can I convert the data of each axis into the corresponding acceleration value and angular velocity value? Which formula is needed to convert it into the corresponding angular velocity value or acceleration value? Please give me a definite formula.
    2. How can I know that the data of the nine axes read out are correct? How can I verify whether the register configuration is correct and whether the data is correct?

     Look forward to your reply.Thank you!
