The BMP280 is a high precision pressure sensor module from Bosch. The sensor can measure both atmospheric pressure and temperature with an accuracy of 0.1hPa and 0.1*C respectively. It is commonly used in barometer or altimeter. It operates on 3.3V and can communicate through both SPI and IIC.
- Operating voltage: 1.7V to 3.6V
- Maximum Current: 1.12mA
- Temperature range: -40 to +85 deg.C
- Pressure range: 300hPa to 1100hPa
- Output: SPI and IIC protocol
Applications of BMP280 Module:
- Used in enhancement of GPS navigation.
- Used in indoor navigation (floor detection, elevator detection)
- Outdoor navigation, leisure and sports applications
- Weather forecast, Home weather stations
- Health care application
- Vertical velocity indication
