Pressure Measurement: The BMP280 sensor primarily measures atmospheric pressure and provides data in units such as Pascals (Pa), hectopascals (hPa), or millibars (mbar). It is suitable for weather monitoring, altitude sensing, and more.
Temperature Measurement: In addition to pressure, the sensor measures temperature in degrees Celsius (°C). It provides accurate temperature data that can be used for various applications.
Digital Interface: The BMP280 communicates with microcontrollers and other digital devices using the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) communication protocol, making it easy to interface with popular microcontroller platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and more.
High Precision: The BMP280 is known for its high precision and accuracy, ensuring reliable pressure and temperature measurements.
Low Power Consumption: The sensor is designed for low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered and energy-efficient applications.
Calibration Data: The BMP280 comes with factory-calibrated data stored in its memory, allowing for accurate compensation of environmental variations and ensuring consistent readings.
Altitude Calculation: By measuring atmospheric pressure, the BMP280 can calculate altitude based on the standard atmospheric model. This feature is valuable for altitude tracking and navigation applications.
