Electronic Altimeter Sensor

It works by actually measuring the strain in a very thin fi lm of metal that has a static reference pressure on one side and the changing ambient pressure on the other.

Electronic altimeter sensor.

The module includes a high linearity barometric pressure sensor and a high resolution temperature output allowing implementation of an altimeter thermometer without any additional sensors. The mpl3115a2 has a typical 1 5 pascal resolution which can resolve altitude at 0 3 meters compare to the bmp180 which can do 0 17m.

The accustar ea electronic clinometer is the next generation in the highly acclaimed accustar family. The measurement of altitude is called altimetry which is related to the term bathymetry the measurement of depth under water the most common unit for altimeter calibration worldwide is hectopascals hpa except for north america and japan where inches of mercury inhg are used.

The altimeter module is a high resolution 20 cm electronic altimeter sensor. Electronic barometric altimeter in real time correction. The ad30 is also available with square front bezel and 3ati case in black or grey color. The thommen ad30 electronic altimeter can be configured for different applications and displays altitude in feet or meters all without altering the system architecture.

The ms5607 b is a new generation of high resolution altimeter sensors from meas switzerland with spi and i2c bus interface. This pressure sensor from freescale is a great low cost sensing solution for precision measurement of barometric pressure and altitude. The sensor module includes a high linearity pressure sensor and an ultra low power 24 bit adc with internal factory calibrated coefficients. An altimeter or an altitude meter is an instrument used to measure the altitude of an object above a fixed level.

Altimeter block diagram figure 3. It is optimized for altimeters and variometers with an altitude resolution of 20 cm. Building on the success of the original accustar the accustar ea takes low cost tilt sensing to the next level by combining 100 solid state technology with digital calibration and proprietary filtering techniques.
