BMA580 Next-Generation Accelerometer

Bosch Sensortec’s accelerometer is designed for compact devices with advanced performance requirements

Image of Bosch Sensortech BMA580 Next-Generation AccelerometerBosch Sensortec's BMA580 accelerometer is specially designed for compact devices such as hearables requiring the smallest components. Stylish and minimalistic hearables offer little space for powerful components but this next-generation accelerometer with unique voice activity detection through bone conduction and advanced power mode features is one of the world's smallest acceleration sensors (1.2 mm x 0.8 mm x 0.55 mm). The BMA580 ensures that the microphone is turned on only if necessary to detect voice activity, saving power.

Features
  • Voice activity detection: turns on the microphone in hearables according to the vibrations transmitted by bone conduction instead of having an always-on and power-consuming microphone
  • User interface features: enables the user interaction with the hearable device such as tapping on the hearable to accept a call
  • Power management: detects when hearables have been put away and are not in use and when they are picked up again; this can be turned off accordingly to save power
Applications
  • Hearables
  • Consumer devices with advanced performance requirements
