Product Description Altimeter Module MS5607 Overview: The Altimeter Module MS5607 is a high resolution (20 cm) electronic altimeter sensor that gives highly accurate altitude, pressure, and temperature readings. 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. Different operation modes allow the user to optimize for conversion speed or current consumption. The module is designed for use with a large variety of microcontrollers with different voltage requirements. This module is well-suited for high-altitude ballooning and has been used with great success in that role. Key Features: 24-bit pressure and temperature values Wide pressure range Successfully tested at 120,000 feet Application Ideas: Mobile altimeter / barometer systems Rate of Climb and Descent Indicator (RCDI) High altitude balloons Height sensing Navigation Weather station Altitude hold for UAVs IMU builds Altimeter Module MS5607 Details: Pressure range of 10 –1200 mbar Thermometer of -40 to 85 °C with <.01 °C resolution Power Requirements: 3.3 to 6.5 VDC Current Consumption: ~1.74 mA @ 3.3 VDC Communication Interface: I2C (up to 400 kHz) or SPI (20 MHz) Dimensions: 0.85 X 0.80 in (2.16 X 2.03 cm) Operating temperature: -40 to 185 °F (-40 to 85 °C) PCB assembled, tested, and completed in Rocklin, California
