Introduction
The SPL06-001 is a miniaturized Digital Barometric Air Pressure Sensor with a high accuracy and_a low current consumption. The SPL06-001 is both a pressure and_a temperature sensor. The pressure sensor element is based on a capacitive sensing principle which guarantees a high precision during temperature changes. The small package makes the SPL06-001 ideal for mobile applications and_wearable devices.
The SPL06-001‘s internal signal processor converts the output from the pressure and_temperature sensor elements to 24-bit results. Each pressure sensor has been calibrated individually and_contains calibration coefficients. The coefficients are used in the application to convert the measurement results to true pressure and_temperature values.
The SPL06-001 has a FIFO that can store the latest 32 measurements. By using the FIFO， the host processor can remain in a sleep mode for a longer period of time between readouts. This can reduce the overall system power consumption. Sensor measurements and_calibration coefficients are available through the serial I2C interface.
