From the project
Raspberry Pi Pico 2W mini Drone Project
The BMP280 is a digital temperature and pressure sensor featuring high accuracy and low power consumption. It is based on Bosch's proven piezo-resistive pressure sensor technology with an accuracy down to 0.12 hPa, ultra-low power consumption, and a robust design.
- Pressure measurement: 300-1100 hPa (±1 hPa accuracy) - Temperature measurement: -40°C to +85°C (±1°C accuracy) - Low power consumption: 2.7 µA @ 1 Hz sampling - High resolution: Up to 0.16 Pa (13 cm) altitude resolution - Dual interface: I²C and SPI communication - Wide supply voltage: 1.71V to 3.6V (VDD), 1.2V to 3.6V (VDDIO) -…
