DPS310 Barometric pressure sensor for consumer applications
The barometric pressure sensor DPS310 offers excellent pressure noise performance and high stability with temperature.
Features
Infineon DPS310’s ultra-high precision and excellent accuracy enable it to detect body motions (sitting, standing-up, walking, running), transient states and also single steps or gestures. The DPS310 is both a pressure and also a temperature sensor.
- Supply voltage range 1.7V to 3.6V
- Operation range 300hP – 1200hPa
- Sensor precision 0.005hPa
- Relative accuracy +/-0.06hPa
- Pressure temperature sensitivity 0.5Pa/K
- Temperature accuracy +/-0.5degC
Benefits
The barometric pressure sensor DPS310 offers excellent pressure noise performance and high stability with temperature.
- Most accurate solution with +/-0.005hPa precision (resolution) that equals to +/-5cm. DPS310 has very low noise and can even detect individual steps. DPS310 has excellent stability over temperature due to the linear temperature behavior of the capacitive sensing element.
- Additional temperature sensor in the device. DPS310 works also as a temperature sensor
- Less energy consumption: the integrated FIFO can store up to 32 pressure / temperature measurements. The sensor hub in the host device can be powered down between the readings
- Optimized energy usage: DPS310 is configurable for different use cases. The current consumption in low power mode: pressure measurement 1.7μA and temperature measurement 1.5μA
Target applications
