The MPL3115A2 is a sophisticated MEMS-based pressure sensor that delivers highly accurate altitude data, with a resolution down to fractions of a meter when oversampling is enabled. Its pressure output is resolved to fractions of a Pascal, making it suitable for applications requiring fine atmospheric changes. The sensor’s outputs are digitized by an internal high-resolution 24-bit ADC and communicated via a standard I2C interface.
This breakout board simplifies prototyping by providing the sensor in a ready-to-use format, with all required passive components populated and pins broken out to a standard 0.1-inch header. The device operates across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliability in various environmental conditions for weather stations, navigation aids, and altitude tracking systems.
