BMP581 Shuttle Board 3.0
Overview
The BMP581 Shuttle Board 3.0 is a development tool featuring the Bosch Sensortec BMP581 absolute barometric pressure sensor. This compact board provides easy access to the sensor pins via a standardized socket, allowing for rapid evaluation and integration into embedded system prototypes. It is designed to demonstrate the sensor high accuracy and low noise performance in a 2.0 x 2.0 mm footprint.
Why Choose This Part
This board features the BMP581 sensor, which offers a 16-bit resolution and a measurement range of 30 to 125 kPa. It includes an on-chip FIFO buffer for up to 32 pressure samples and programmable low-pass filtering to reduce system overhead. The board supports a wide supply voltage range from 1.71V to 3.6V, making it compatible with various low-power microcontrollers.
Applications
Getting Started
To begin evaluation, connect the shuttle board to the Bosch Sensortec Application Board 3.0 or interface directly via the I2C or SPI pins. Download the Bosch Sensortec sensor API from GitHub to configure the 6 bytes of user-programmable non-volatile memory and interrupt settings. Ensure the VDD is within the 1.71V to 3.6V range before initializing the sensor.
