I used to laugh at idiots ordering the wrong package size...

Red Squirrel:
LOL I did a similar mistake.  Except I had dimensions and everything so it's 100% my fault.  I pretty much grossly underestimated just how small 5mmx5mm is when you are trying to dead bug solder it.  Pretty much need a PCB with proper solder pads for something like that.  I'm sure someone that's very good at soldering could dead bug it but it was a little beyond my skillet lol.

Amazingly, it didn't blow up or short out the supply rail upon power on. I guess it has good DFI (design for idiots).
FYI, it's Bosch BNO055.

"Pin 1 ID" in the datasheet.

Pin 1 is NC in the datasheet, so.. I assume the ID pad is NC as well but not really sure. Interesting choice, maybe it helps with pick and place bottom cameras?
