Bosch’s BMI088 High-Performance IMU for Drones and Robotics Exclusive at Mouser

Mouser Electronics is now stocking the BMI088 high-performance inertial measurement unit (IMU) from Bosch Sensortec.

Borrowing from Bosch’s proven automotive technology, the Bosch BMI088 delivers an extremely stable, low-noise 6-axis inertial sensor designed for industrial and harsh-environment drone and robotics applications.

Available from Mouser Electronics, the Bosch BMI088 IMU Incorporates:

• A 16-bit digital, triaxial accelerometer and a 16-bit digital, triaxial gyroscope to accurately measure orientation and detect motion along three orthogonal axes.
• The device offers acceleration ranges of ±3 g to ±24 g and gyroscopic slew rates up to ±2,000 degrees per second (°/s).
• The high performance and high speed of the BMI088 enable it to suppress vibrations, which can help ensure smoother navigation and avoid crashes in applications such as drones.
• The BMI088 provides vibration-quelling speed and 16-bit accuracy to enable ultra-low drift maximum bias drift of 2°/hour.
• With its vibration robustness and temperature stability even under sudden temperature fluctuations, the BMI088 dramatically enhances steering and navigation accuracy even in the most naturally high-vibration environments.
• The device is compatible with other Bosch sensors such as the BMI085 IMU to simplify integration into existing designs and comes factory calibrated and ready to use in a compact 3.0 × 4.5 × 0.95 mm package.

For development, the BMI088 shuttle board enables designers to gain easy access to the sensor’s pins via a simple socket. And because all Bosch Sensortec sensor shuttle boards have identical footprints, they can interface with the company’s other advanced development tools for optimal flexibility.
