The Bosch BMP388 digital barometric pressure sensor, available from Mouser Electronics, uses proven sensing principles to provide pressure and temperature measurements. The 24-bit device covers a measurement range of 300 hPa to 1250 hPa while consuming only 3.4 μA at 1 Hz. The BMP388 sensor features interrupt functionality for easy access to storage and data, while a built-in infinite impulse response (IIR) filter minimizes short-term disturbances such as those caused by slamming doors or windows.
The Bosch BMP388 digital barometric pressure sensor is housed in a 10-pin, 2 mm × 2 mm × 0.75 mm metal cap LGA package and offers FIFO functionality, which reduces power consumption and improves ease of use. The compact device is ideal for altitude stabilization in consumer drones, Internet of Things applications, vertical speed indication, weather forecasting, healthcare applications, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and enhanced GPS accuracy.
