Overview

The ASD2511-R-P is a compact sensor expansion board for the TinyDuino ecosystem featuring the Bosch BMP280 barometric pressure sensor. This module provides high-precision atmospheric pressure and altitude data with very low power consumption, operating at a typical run current of 0.139mA. It is designed to stack directly onto a TinyDuino processor board via a standardized 20mm x 20mm miniature connector system.

Why Choose This Part

The module offers a wide measurement range of 300 to 1100 hPa and is compatible with power supplies ranging from 3V to 5.5V. Its TinyDuino stackable form factor eliminates the need for breadboarding or wiring, making it ideal for rapid prototyping of ultra-small embedded systems.

Applications

High-Altitude Rocketry
Logging peak altitude and flight pressure profiles in space-constrained model rockets.
Drone Flight Control
Providing vertical stability and altitude hold capabilities for micro-UAVs and quadcopters.
Portable Weather Stations
Measuring atmospheric pressure trends for local weather forecasting in battery-powered remote nodes.
Wearable Altimeters
Integrating into compact wearable devices to track floor climbing or elevation changes during hiking.

Getting Started

To use this board, stack it onto a TinyDuino processor board and use the Wire library for I2C communication. Engineers can utilize the standard Bosch BMP280 driver libraries available through the Arduino Library Manager to quickly poll pressure and temperature data. Ensure the power supply is within the 3V to 5.5V range for stable operation.
