Description

The bno080_085-Datasheet.pdf in section 1.3.5.3 (page 28), discusses the Sensor's timestamping functionality, is this implemented in CircuitPython?

It appears to be in the Adafruit Arduino code for bno08x.
[https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BNO08x/blob/master/src/sh2.c](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BNO08x/blob/master/src/sh2.c)

Here is an example of it being used in Arduino user code:

Research direction

Read section 1.3.5.3 on page 28 of bno080_085-Datasheet.pdf, then compare the CircuitPython library's available sensor-report handling with src/sh2.c in the linked Adafruit Arduino code. Use the linked timestamp example to identify the expected behavior; done means establishing whether timestamp support exists and defining the required CircuitPython change.
