Description

The MS5840-02BA01 is a precision MEMS-based absolute pressure sensor from TE Connectivity, engineered for demanding applications requiring high resolution and minimal power draw. Its gel-filled, ceramic-metal housing integrates a 24-bit delta-sigma ADC and factory calibration, providing stable digital pressure and temperature data directly over a standard I2C bus without requiring external signal conditioning components.

Operating over a pressure range of 300 to 1200 mbar and a temperature range of -20 to +85 °C, this sensor is ideal for systems exposed to varying environmental conditions. Its fast, selectable conversion times (0.5 to 17 ms) and microamp-level power profile make it perfectly suited for integration into portable electronics, dive computers, weather stations, and IoT devices where battery life and space are critical constraints.

Key Features

  • High-Precision MEMS Sensing: Provides accurate absolute pressure measurement with a typical accuracy of ±1.5 mbar.
  • Integrated 24-bit ΔΣ ADC: Delivers high-resolution digital output with built-in calibration coefficients for simplified system integration.
  • Ultra-Low Power Operation: Optimized for battery-powered applications with configurable power-down and standby modes.
  • Robust Environmental Sealing: Gel-filled cavity and stainless-steel cap offer watertight protection and resistance to magnetic interference.
  • Wide Supply Voltage Range: Operates from 1.5V to 3.6V, compatible with common 1.8V and 3.3V logic systems.
  • Compact Footprint: Miniature 3.3 x 3.3 mm LGA package enables integration into space-constrained designs.

Applications

  • High-precision altimeters and barometers for wearable fitness trackers and smartwatches.
  • Depth sensing and pressure monitoring in dive computers and underwater instrumentation.
  • Environmental monitoring and weather station systems for atmospheric pressure tracking.
  • Battery-powered IoT devices and mobile platforms requiring ultra-low-power sensing.
  • Industrial condition monitoring for equipment operating within the specified pressure range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the supply voltage range for the MS5840-02BA01 sensor?

The MS5840-02BA01 operates from a supply voltage of 1.5V to 3.6V DC. This wide range makes it directly compatible with common 1.8V and 3.3V logic levels found in microcontrollers like those from the STM32, ESP32, and nRF series, eliminating the need for a level shifter in most designs.

How do I communicate with this pressure sensor module?

Communication is via a standard I2C digital interface. The sensor provides 24-bit digital pressure and temperature readings, and all necessary calibration coefficients are stored onboard. No external components are required for basic operation, simplifying integration with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other I2C-capable hosts.

What is the typical accuracy and resolution of this sensor?

The sensor has a typical absolute accuracy of ±1.5 mbar. Its 24-bit delta-sigma ADC provides high resolution, translating to an altitude resolution of approximately 13 centimeters at SEA level, making it suitable for precise vertical positioning and barometric applications.

Is this sensor suitable for outdoor or waterproof applications?

Yes, the sensor features a gel-filled cavity and a sealed stainless-steel cap, providing a high degree of environmental protection. This construction makes it resistant to moisture and magnetic fields, suitable for outdoor weather stations, wearable devices, and other applications exposed to harsh conditions.

What is the power consumption in different operating modes?

The sensor is designed for ultra-low power operation. In idle mode, it consumes approximately 0.6 µA, while in standby mode, consumption drops to 0.1 µA or less. Selectable fast conversion times (0.5 ms to 17 ms) allow further optimization of the power budget for battery-powered systems.
