Adafruit DPS310 Precision Barometric Pressure and Altitude Sensor
Adafruit DPS310 Precision Barometric Pressure and Altitude Sensor
This DPS310 sensor is a high precision barometric sensor, perfect for measuring height changes with up to ±0.002 hPa (or ±0.02 m) in precision high precision mode and ± 1 hPa absolute accuracy. This means you know your absolute height with 1 meter accuracy when you adjust sea level pressure and measure height changes with up to 2 cm precision. This makes it a great sensor for use in drones or other height sensitive robots. This sensor is also good for any environment sensor kit, you can use it to predict weather system changes. You can use this sensor with either I2C or SPI, making it easy to integrate. It also has a built-in temperature sensor with ±0.5°C accuracy. Set it for the lowest noise values to perform multiple measurements and perform a low-pass filter that is built in. You can use it from 300 to 1200 hPa and in ambient temperature ranges from -40 to 85 °C. To make your life easier so you can focus on your important work, the sensor along with a supporting circuit has been placed on a breakout circuit board so you can use it with 3.3V (Feather/Raspberry Pi) or 5V (Arduino/Metro328) logic level. Since it speaks I2C, you can easily connect it with two wires (plus power and ground). Qwiic compatible STEMMA QT connectors were included for the I2C bus, so you don't even have to solder! Simply connect to your favorite micro and you can use our CircuitPython or Arduino drivers to easily connect to the DPS310. Dimensions: 25.5 x 17.7 x 4.6 mm.
