MPL115A2
MPL115A2 is Miniature I2C digital barometer manufactured by NXP Semiconductors.
description
The MPL115A2 is an absolute pressure sensor with a digital I2C output targeting low-cost applications. A miniature 5 x 3 x 1.2 mm LGA package is ideally suited for the space constrained requirements of portable electronic devices. Low current consumptions of 5 μA during Active mode and 1 μA during Shutdown (Sleep) mode are essential when focusing on low-power applications. The wide operating temperature range spans from
- 40 °C to +105 °C to fit demanding environmental conditions.
The MPL115A2 employs a MEMS pressure sensor with a conditioning IC to provide accurate pressure measurements from 50 k Pa to 115 k Pa. An integrated ADC converts pressure and temperature sensor readings to digitized outputs via a I2C port. Factory calibration data is stored internally in an onboard ROM. Utilizing the raw sensor output and calibration data, the host microcontroller executes a pensation algorithm to render pensated Absolute Pressure with ±1 k Pa accuracy.
The MPL115A2 pressure sensor’s small form factor, low-power capability, precision, and digital output optimize it for barometric measurement applications.
