BMP180 Barometric Pressure Sensor
Key Features:-
Pressure Measurement: The BMP180 sensor is primarily used to measure atmospheric pressure. It provides pressure data in units such as Pascals (Pa), hectopascals (hPa), or millibars (mbar).
Temperature Measurement: In addition to pressure, the sensor also measures temperature in degrees Celsius (°C).
Digital Interface: The BMP180 communicates with microcontrollers and other digital devices using standard I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) communication protocol, making it easy to interface with various microcontroller platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and more.
High Precision: The sensor is known for its high precision, providing accurate pressure and temperature readings.
Low Power Consumption: The BMP180 is designed for low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered and portable applications.
Calibration Data: The sensor typically comes with built-in calibration data stored in its memory, allowing for accurate compensation of environmental variations.
Altitude Calculation: By measuring atmospheric pressure, the BMP180 can calculate altitude based on the standard atmospheric model.
