(

uint8_t

bytes[]

)

Converts a signed 16 bit integer from big endian to little endian.

This function is for commonly used 16 bit big endian sensor data, delivered by driver routines as two 8 bit numbers in big endian order. Common vendors with big endian representation are Invense, Bosch and Honeywell. ST micro devices tend to use a little endian representation.
