About this item

The SparkFun SEN-16476 Qwiic MicroPressure Sensor is a compact, high-precision pressure sensor designed for accurate barometric pressure measurement in a small form factor. Utilizing the MPRLS (Micro Pressure Sensor) from Honeywell, this breakout board offers an easy-to-use interface and reliable performance for various applications such as weather monitoring, altimetry, environmental sensing, and portable devices. This sensor features a piezoresistive sensing element and an integrated signal conditioning circuit to provide digital pressure data over an I2C interface. It measures absolute pressure ranging from 20 kPa to 115 kPa with excellent accuracy and low noise, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. The SEN-16476 breakout is part of the SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem, featuring a Qwiic connector for plug-and-play connectivity with minimal wiring. The sensor operates at 3.3V and is ideal for battery-powered projects due to its low power consumption. Its compact design and robust performance make it perfect for applications including drone altitude control, weather stations, HVAC systems, and scientific data logging. With built-in calibration and temperature compensation, this sensor delivers precise pressure readings for enhanced project reliability.
