Document number: BST-BMI088-DS001-1

Revision_1.3_05201

The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of the BMI088 sensors corresponds to JEDEC Level 1. See also:

• IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020C “Joint Industry Standard: Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification

for non-hermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices”

• IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033A “Joint Industry Standard: Handling, Packing, Shipping and Use of

Moisture/Reflow Sensitive Surface Mount Devices”

The sensor fulfils the lead-free soldering requirements of the above-mentioned IPC/JEDEC standard,

i.e. reflow soldering with a peak temperature up to 260°C.

8.5 Handling instructions

Micromechanical sensors are designed to sense acceleration with high accuracy even at low amplitudes

and contain highly sensitive structures inside the sensor element. The MEMS sensor can tolerate

mechanical shocks up to several thousand g’s. However, these limits might be exceeded in conditions

with extreme shock loads such as e.g. hammer blow on or next to the sensor, dropping of the sensor

onto hard surfaces etc.

We recommend to avoid g-forces beyond the specified limits during transport, handling and mounting

of the sensors in a defined and qualified installation process.

This device has built-in protections against high electrostatic discharges or electric fields (e.g. 2kV

HBM); however, anti-static precautions should be taken as for any other CMOS component. Unless

otherwise specified, proper operation can only occur when all terminal voltages are kept within the

supply voltage range. Unused inputs must always be tied to a defined logic voltage level.

8.6 Environmental safety

The BMI088 sensor meets the requirements of the EC restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS)

directive, see also:

Directive Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of January 3

2013 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic

equipment.
