Der Barometer 4 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine zum Messen des Luftdrucks in einer bestimmten Umgebung. Diese Platine enthält den ICP-10111, einen hochpräzisen barometrischen und Temperatursensor mit geringem Stromverbrauch von TDK InvenSense. Der ICP-10111 basiert auf kapazitiver MEMS-Technologie und bietet extrem geringes Rauschen bei geringstem Stromverbrauch, was branchenführende relative Genauigkeit, Sensordurchsatz und Temperaturstabilität ermöglicht. Er verfügt über eine konfigurierbare Hostschnittstelle, die serielle I2C-Kommunikation unterstützt und den Druck in einem Bereich von 30 kPa bis 110 kPa mit einer Genauigkeit von ±1 Pa über einen weiten Betriebstemperaturbereich misst.
Das Barometer 4 Click Board™ eignet sich für verschiedene druckbasierte Anwendungen, insbesondere wenn ein niedriger Stromverbrauch erforderlich ist, Haushaltsgeräte wie Luftstromregelung in Heizungs-, Lüftungs- und Klimatechnik, Wasserstandserkennung, Überwachung der Vertikalgeschwindigkeit, Wettervorhersage und vieles mehr.
How Does The Barometer 4 Click Board™ Work?
The Barometer 4 Click Board™ as its foundation uses the ICP-10111, an ultra-low power, low noise, digital output barometric pressure, and temperature sensor from TDK InvenSense. It is based on an innovative MEMS capacitive pressure sensor technology that can measure pressure in a range from 30kPa up to 110kPa with an accuracy of ±1Pa over a wide operating temperature range at the industry's lowest power. This high accuracy MEMS capacitive pressure sensor can also measure altitude differentials down to 8.5cm without the penalty of increased power consumption or reduced sensor throughput.
The ICP-10111 also offers industry-leading temperature stability of the pressure sensor with a temperature coefficient offset of ±0.5Pa/°C. The high accuracy, temperature stability, and low power consumption offered by ICP-10111 make it ideally suited for applications such as drone flight control and stabilization, indoor/outdoor navigation, sports and fitness activity monitoring, and battery-powered IoT.
The ICP-10111 also requires a supply voltage of 1.8V to work regularly. Therefore, a small LDO regulator, BH18PB1WHFV from Rohm Semiconductor, provides 1.8V out of mikroBUS™ power rails. This LDO cut power consumption by lowering its current consumption to approximately 2μA when the application is operating in the Standby state.
The Barometer 4 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using a standard I2C 2-Wire interface that supports 400kHz Fast Mode operation. Since the sensor for operation requires a 1.8V logic voltage level only, this Click board™ also features the PCA9306 voltage-level translator from Texas Instruments. The I2C interface bus lines are routed to the dual bidirectional voltage-level translator, allowing this Click board™ to work with both 3.3V and 5V MCUs properly.
This Click board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the I2C communication lines properly. However, the Barometer 4 Click Board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
