7. Operation modes
7.1 Normal operational mode
In normal operational mode the sensor IC can be addressed via digital interface. Data and
status registers can be read out and control registers and EEPROM values can be read and
changed. In parallel to normal operation the user has the option to activate several internal logic
paths and set criteria to trigger the interrupt pin. BMA150 is designed to enable low current
consumption of 200µA in operational mode.
A self-test procedure can be started in operational mode for testing of the complete signal
evaluation path including the micro-machined sensor IC structure, the evaluation ASIC and the
physical connection to the host system.
7.2 Sleep mode
Sleep mode is activated by setting a control bit. In sleep mode no communication with the
sensor IC is possible – all read and write commands are forbidden. The recommended
command to switch to operational mode is the wake-up call.
Wake-up time from sleep to operational mode is 1ms.
In case of a soft-reset, it is recommended to do this reset after having switched from sleep to
operational mode. In this case the total typical wake-up and reset time at maximum bandwidth is
"switching to operational mode = 1ms" and "time after soft reset until acceleration data is
available = 1.3ms", i.e. 2.3ms in total.
In case a soft-reset is activated during sleep mode it can take up to 30ms until normal operation
has resumed.
The current consumption in sleep mode is 1µA.
7.3 Wake-up mode
In general BMA150 is attributed to low power applications and can contribute to the system
power management.

The BMA150 provides the possibility to wake up a system master when specific acceleration
values are detected. Therefore the BMA150 stays in an ultra low power mode and periodically
