Bosch Sensortec announced it is launching a longevity program in addition to extending its product portfolio. The company is doing so to help met the needs of industrial applications.

As part of the program, the company is offering the BMI090L Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), BMA490L accelerometer, and BMP390L barometric pressure sensor.

The IMU, which was developed for IIoT application, features vibration robustness and temperature stability.

The BMA490L is an acceleration sensor targeting both IIoT and logistics applications. It offers low-noise and low-offset, making it suitable for predictive maintenance, asset tracing, and vibration monitoring. Its current consumption is reduced to 14 µA in the low-power operation mode.

The BMP390L barometric pressure sensor offers a temperature stability usually around ±0.6 Pa/K and a typical relative accuracy of ±0.03 hPa. Per the company, this sensor is suitable for use cases such as water level detection, asset tracking, and navigation.
