Whether looking to add motion, position or other sensors into the design for the first time or are trying to expand product features without breaking the power budget, NXP has developed this solution with both uses in mind. To that point, NXP has found that it is not straightforward to integrate sensors and processing into applications. It requires non-trivial study to understand how MEMS sensors work, recognize the strengths and limitations specific to the application, as well as processing requirements. It is not as simple as adding yet another I²C or SPI device to the microcontroller. One must also understand the software processing requirements as well as power consumption impact. A microcontroller that can interface to more sensors and provide a scalable solution to power and performance would be ideal.
