STMicroelectronics LPS22DF MEMS Nano Pressure Sensor
Low-power and high-precision MEMS nano pressure sensor: 260-1260 hPa absolute digital output barometer
The STMicroelectronics LPS22DF is an ultra-compact piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor which functions as a digital output barometer. The LPS22DF provides lower power consumption, achieving lower pressure noise than its predecessor.
The LPS22DF comprises a sensing element and an IC interface which communicates over I²C, MIPI I3CSM or SPI interfaces from the sensing element to the application and supports a wide Vdd IO range for the digital interfaces as well. The sensing element, which detects absolute pressure, consists of a suspended membrane manufactured using a dedicated process developed by ST.
The pressure sensor by STMicroelectronics is available in a full-mold, holed LGA package (HLGA). The LPS22DF sensor 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.
