    How can I check BMI160's accuracy?

    How can I check BMI160's accuracy?

    Hi.

    If I want to check the accuracy of angular velocity and acceleration measurements, which part of the datasheet should I look at?
    Is it  the same as the description of max or min sensitivity (or resolution)?


    And, I would also like to know the accuracy of angular velocity and acceleration when repeated measurements are taken after offset.
    I know this is a rudimentary question, but I'd like to know.

    Hello yasu_999,

    You could refer the chapter "1.2 ELECTRICAL AND PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS, MEASUREMENT PERFORMANCE" in BMI160 data sheet.

    Hello BSTRobin,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I read the datasheet and understood the following, is it correct?
    ""
    Without considering external disturbance, the accuracy of 1 bit of measurement at 25 degC and 16G range is determined by the reciprocal of sensitivity, 1/2130~1/1966.
    And, the temperature and overvoltage supply will cause changes in the accuracy of the measurement.

    Hello yasu_999,

    You could refer the table "output signal accelerometer" and "output signal gyroscope".
