LPS225HB MEMS pressure sensor: 26 - 126 kPa absolute digital output barometer Datasheet - production data Applications Altimeters and barometers for portable devices GPS applications Weather station equipment Sport watches HLGA 8L 2.0 x 2.5 x 0.8 (max) mm Description The LPS225HB is an ultra-compact piezoresistive Features absolute pressure sensor. It includes a monolithic sensing element and an IC interface which 26 to 126 kPa absolute pressure range communicates a digital signal from the sensing High-resolution mode: 1 Pa RMS element to the application. Low-power mode: 3.5 Pa RMS The sensing element, which detects absolute pressure, consists of a suspended membrane Current consumption down to 4 A inside a single mono-silicon substrate and is High overpressure capability: 20x full scale manufactured using a dedicated process Embedded temperature compensation developed by ST. Embedded 24-bit ADC The membrane is very small compared to the ODR from 1 Hz to 75 Hz traditionally built silicon micromachined membranes. Membrane breakage is prevented SPI and IC interfaces by an intrinsic mechanical stopper. Embedded FIFO The IC interface is manufactured using a standard Interrupt functions: Data Ready, FIFO flags, CMOS process that allows a high level of pressure thresholds integration to design a dedicated circuit which is Supply voltage: 1.7 to 3.6 V trimmed to better match the characteristics of the sensing element. Small and thin package ECOPACK lead-free compliant The LPS225HB is available in a full-mold, holed LGA package (HLGA). It is guaranteed to operate over a temperature range extending from -40 C to +85 C. The package is holed to allow external pressure to reach the sensing element. Table 1.
