Overview
Das Barometer 8 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine zum Messen des Luftdrucks in einer bestimmten Umgebung. Diese Platine verfügt über den ILPS22QS, einen ultrakompakten piezoresistiven Absolutdrucksensor, der als Barometer mit digitalem Ausgang von STMicroelectronics fungiert. Der ILPS22QS umfasst ein Sensorelement und einen IC-Chip zur Signalverarbeitung in einem Gehäuse, wandelt den Druck in einen 24-Bit-Digitalwert um und sendet die Informationen über eine konfigurierbare Hostschnittstelle, die SPI- und I2C-Seriellkommunikation unterstützt. Es verfügt über einen wählbaren dualen Vollskalen-Absolutdruckbereich von bis zu 1260 hPa und 4060 hPa mit einer Genauigkeit von 0,5 hPa über einen weiten Betriebstemperaturbereich. Dieses Click Board™ ist für verschiedene druckbasierte Anwendungen, Industrie, Verbraucher, Wetterstationen und mehr geeignet.
Das Barometer 8 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The Barometer 8 Click Board™ Work?
The Barometer 8 Click Board™ as its foundation uses the ILPS22QS, a high-accuracy absolute pressure sensor that functions as a digital output barometer from STMicroelectronics. The ILPS22QS delivers ultra-low pressure noise with low power consumption and operates over an extended temperature range from -40°C to +105°C. It has a selectable dual full-scale absolute pressure range, from 260 up to 1260hPa or 4060hPa, with an accuracy of 0.5hPa, ideally suited to the harsh environmental conditions in industrial and consumer applications.
The ILPS22QS comprises a sensing element based on a piezoresistive Wheatstone bridge approach and an IC interface that provides a digital signal from the sensing element to the application. The sensing element, which detects absolute pressure, consists of a suspended membrane manufactured using a dedicated process developed by ST. A silicon spring structure surrounds this silicon membrane, and it contributes to isolating the membrane from mechanical and thermal stress in applications. When pressure is applied, the membrane deflection induces an imbalance in the Wheatstone bridge piezoresistance, whose output signal is converted by the selected interface.
The Barometer 8 Click Board™ allows using both I2C and SPI interfaces with a maximum frequency of 1MHz for I2C and 8MHz for SPI communication. The selection can be made by positioning SMD jumpers labelled as COMM SEL to an appropriate position. Note that all the jumpers' positions must be on the same side, or the Click board™ may become unresponsive.
The Barometer 8 Click Board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before using MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
