SmartElex MPL3115A2 Altitude Pressure Sensor Breakout Board
The SmartElex MPL3115A2 Altitude Pressure Sensor Breakout Board is a compact and reliable altitude sensor module designed for precise environmental measurements. Based on the MPL3115A2 MEMS sensor, it delivers altitude data with accuracy up to 30 cm and pressure readings in fractions of a Pascal using a high-resolution 24-bit ADC.
The sensor communicates via I2C, making it simple to interface with popular microcontrollers and development boards. This Breakout Board includes all required passive components and exposes the pins on a 0.1″ header, allowing quick prototyping without extra circuitry.
With added 12-bit temperature sensing, this Altitude Pressure Sensor is well-suited for drones, weather monitoring, navigation systems, and embedded IoT applications.
