HSPPAD042A Übersicht

The Alps Alpine HSPPAD042A is a digital MEMS barometric pressure sensor operating from 300 hPa to 1100 hPa with an I2C interface, housed in a compact SMD-10P package measuring 2 x 2.5 mm. The device runs on a single supply of 1.7 V to 3.6 V and draws only 1.8 uA typical supply current, making it well-suited for battery-powered portable designs.

A digital pressure sensor is an electronic component that converts absolute gas pressure into a calibrated digital output via an integrated MEMS sensing element and an on-chip analog front-end plus ADC. Pressure sensors sit within the broader transducer hierarchy: transducer -> sensor -> pressure sensor -> barometric/absolute pressure sensor -> board-mount pressure sensor. The HSPPAD042A specifically targets barometric pressure measurement, the same form of pressure used in weather forecasting and altitude estimation, where the sensor measures pressure relative to an internal vacuum reference.

Key features of the HSPPAD042A include a Philips I2C-BUS Specification v2.1 / NXP UM10204 Rev.03 compliant slave interface at fixed address 1001000x (Write:0, Read:1), an operating temperature range of -40C to +85C, and a RoHS-compliant surface-mount package. The part targets mobile, wearable, and IoT designs that require accurate barometric readings without the layout burden of an analog front-end. Pressure resolution and conversion timing are controlled via the I2C interface, allowing the host MCU to manage power consumption by issuing one-shot conversions.

Typical applications include barometric altitude estimation in drones and wearables, weather station modules, HVAC air-flow monitoring, indoor navigation pressure references, and altitude-aware GPS augmentation in smartphones. The 1.8 uA quiescent current allows years of operation on a coin cell when paired with duty-cycled wake-up, while the small 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P footprint allows direct integration on dense IoT boards.

When designing with this sensor, place decoupling capacitors (typically 100 nF ceramic) as close as possible to the VDD pin and route the I2C SDA/SCL traces as short as possible with pull-up resistors in the 2.2 kOhm to 10 kOhm range. Avoid placing the sensor directly over heat-generating components, as thermal gradients introduce pressure offset errors. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the I2C slave address is fixed at 0x48 (Write) / 0x49 (Read) and the bus supports standard and fast modes per NXP UM10204.

Typische Anwendungen

HSPPAD042A ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Drone Barometric Altitude Hold, Wearable Fitness Altimeter, Portable Weather Station Module, HVAC Air-Flow Pressure Monitor, Indoor Navigation Pressure Reference, IoT Altitude-Aware GPS Augmentation.

✈️

Drone Barometric Altitude Hold

The HSPPAD042A delivers barometric pressure data to the flight controller for altitude-hold PID loops in consumer and prosumer drones. Its 300 hPa lower limit covers flight altitudes up to roughly 9000 m, while the 1.8 uA typical supply current keeps total power draw negligible against the multirotor's main battery. The I2C interface allows single-shot conversions at 50-100 Hz, sufficient for tight altitude loops. Place the sensor port behind a foam wind-cover to suppress propeller-wash pressure transients that can destabilize the loop.

📱

Wearable Fitness Altimeter

Wearable fitness bands and smartwatches use the HSPPAD042A to estimate elevation gain during hiking, stair climbing, and trail runs. The compact 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P package fits inside a wristband PCB, and the 1.8 uA quiescent current allows years of operation on a coin cell when paired with duty-cycled wake-up. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the internal temperature compensation removes the need for host-side second-order correction across -40C to +85C, simplifying firmware load. The fixed 0x48/0x49 I2C address is acceptable in single-sensor wearables.

🧩

Portable Weather Station Module

Hobbyist and prosumer weather stations integrate the HSPPAD042A to measure local barometric pressure and derive short-term weather-trend indicators. The 300-1100 hPa range covers all sea-level to high-altitude conditions, while the 1.7-3.6 V supply allows direct connection to a 3.3 V MCU rail. Per the Alps Alpine datasheet, the I2C interface supports standard and fast modes per NXP UM10204, enabling fast bus sharing with other peripherals. Pair the sensor with an LCD display module and a humidity sensor for a complete desktop weather station.

🏭

HVAC Air-Flow Pressure Monitor

Commercial HVAC systems use the HSPPAD042A to measure duct static pressure for filter-load detection and airflow balancing. The device's 1.8 uA quiescent current is negligible compared to the HVAC controller's total consumption, and the wide -40C to +85C range covers rooftop and basement installations. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the digital I2C output eliminates the analog front-end noise that plagues low-pressure bridge-sensor designs. Tap the sensor into the duct with a pneumatic Pitot tube and feed pressure data to the building-management system over Modbus or BACnet.

🌐

Indoor Navigation Pressure Reference

Smartphone and indoor-mapping applications use the HSPPAD042A as a barometric floor-detection reference for vertical position. By fusing accelerometer and pressure data, the host MCU can determine which floor of a building the user is on with +/-1 floor accuracy. The 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P footprint fits inside any smartphone mainboard, and the fixed 0x48/0x49 I2C address leaves the host's other I2C peripherals unaffected. Per the Alps Alpine datasheet, the sensor's low 1.8 uA current makes it acceptable for always-on duty cycling.

🧩

IoT Altitude-Aware GPS Augmentation

GPS modules in IoT asset trackers use the HSPPAD042A to provide altitude-augmentation data that improves vertical accuracy from tens of meters (raw GPS) to single-digit meters. The sensor's 1.7-3.6 V supply matches the 3.3 V rails common in cellular IoT boards, and the I2C interface is bus-shareable with the GPS module. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the device's low noise floor produces stable altitude reads even in the presence of engine vibration when mounted in vehicle trackers. Combine barometric altitude with GPS ephemeris data for the cleanest 3D positioning fix.

What is the operating pressure range of the HSPPAD042A?
The HSPPAD042A measures absolute pressure from 300 hPa to 1100 hPa, covering all sea-level atmospheric conditions plus altitudes up to roughly 9000 m above sea level (where ambient pressure drops near 300 hPa). This makes it suitable for barometric altitude estimation in drones, wearables, smartphones, and weather-station modules. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the sensor reports absolute pressure relative to its internal vacuum reference, so absolute altitude calculation requires the host MCU to apply the international barometric formula.
Where can I buy the HSPPAD042A online and what is the price?
The HSPPAD042A is in stock at LCSC (starting at $1.04 per unit) and Mouser Electronics as of 2026-10-14. LCSC part number C335994 lists the device at $1.0359 at high quantity breaks, while Mouser carries factory-fresh reels with full traceability. Octopart aggregates 4 distributor price quotes; engineers should compare RoHS documentation and reel condition (full vs cut tape) when procuringing. No formal distributor price list is published by Alps Alpine.
What is the lead time for the HSPPAD042A?
LCSC lists HSPPAD042A as in-stock with same-day dispatch as of 2026-10-14. Mouser's listing shows factory stock but lead times vary by reel quantity (full reel lead time is typically 4-6 weeks from Alps Alpine factory, while cut-tape from distributor stock is usually 1-2 business days). For production volume, confirm lead time directly with the franchised distributor; Alps Alpine distribution is concentrated in Asia with LCSC holding the largest spot inventory.
What is the I2C slave address of the HSPPAD042A?
The HSPPAD042A uses a fixed I2C slave address of 0x48 for Write and 0x49 for Read, encoded as 1001000x (where x = R/W bit). Per the Alps Alpine datasheet, the I2C interface conforms to Philips I2C-BUS Specification v2.1 and NXP UM10204 I2C-BUS Specification and User Manual Rev.03-19 June 2007, supporting standard and fast modes. If your design already uses 0x48/0x49, you will need an I2C bus multiplexer or a sensor with a configurable address.
What is the difference between the HSPPAD042A and the BMP280?
Both the HSPPAD042A and Bosch BMP280 are I2C barometric pressure sensors, but they differ in supply current, package, and address flexibility. The HSPPAD042A draws 1.8 uA typical and uses a fixed slave address of 0x48/0x49 in a 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P package; the BMP280 typically draws more current and supports two configurable I2C addresses (0x76/0x77). Engineers designing battery-powered wearables often prefer the HSPPAD042A for its lower quiescent current and smaller footprint.
When should I choose the HSPPAD042A over a competing pressure sensor?
Choose the HSPPAD042A when your design needs low 1.8 uA quiescent current, a compact 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P footprint, a wide 300-1100 hPa absolute pressure range, and a fixed I2C address in a single-supply 1.7-3.6 V system. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, this combination is rare among barometric sensors - competitors offering similar footprint typically draw 2-3x more current or require higher supply rails. For designs needing 2 address options on the bus, pick the BMP280 or a part with an ADDR pin.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the HSPPAD042A?
There is no widely-distributed exact drop-in equivalent for the HSPPAD042A at the same 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P footprint with the same 0x48/0x49 fixed I2C address, but the Alps Alpine HSPPAD038A and HSPPAD042A family variants share the package and I2C protocol. Engineers seeking a cross-brand drop-in should evaluate the BMP280 (pin-to-pin compatible only at the schematic level - different footprint) or verify with a same-package adapter PCB. This scarcity is noted in the validation note.
Can a Bosch BMP280 replace the HSPPAD042A directly on the same PCB?
A BMP280 cannot directly drop into the HSPPAD042A PCB footprint because the BMP280 uses a different package (2.0 x 2.5 mm LGA-8 vs 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P). At the schematic level, both parts run on 1.7-3.6 V, communicate over I2C, and report barometric pressure, so an adapter PCB or footprint rework is needed. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the BMP280 also supports two configurable I2C addresses while the HSPPAD042A uses fixed 0x48/0x49. Treat BMP280 as a cross-package alternative only, not a drop-in.
Where can I download the HSPPAD042A datasheet PDF?
The official HSPPAD042A datasheet PDF can be downloaded from Mouser Electronics at https://www.mouser.com/catalog/specsheets/alps-s-a0009163456-1.pdf and is also mirrored on AllDatasheet (1080847/ALPS) and Datasheets.com. The document describes the I2C protocol register map, pressure/temperature conversion formulas, soldering profile, and mechanical drawing. Pinout information is documented in section 7 of the 30-page PDF and the schematic symbol is supplied as an Altium/Cadence library on distributor portals.
Where can I find the HSPPAD042A pinout?
The HSPPAD042A pinout is published in the official Alps Alpine datasheet on Mouser (alps-s-a0009163456-1.pdf) and in the schematic symbol block on LCSC part detail page C335994. The SMD-10P, 2 x 2.5 mm package assigns 10 pins to VDD, GND, SDA, SCL, INT, CSB, and auxiliary functions; a full per-pin table is rendered on this XAIPART product page. Cross-check the orientation mark on the package (pin 1 indicator) before soldering.
What is the operating temperature range of the HSPPAD042A?
The HSPPAD042A operates from -40C to +85C, covering industrial, commercial, and outdoor applications including automotive cabin modules, weather stations, and drones flying at altitude. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the sensor's pressure output is compensated internally over this temperature range, so the host MCU does not need to apply a temperature correction curve. For extreme-environment use above +85C (e.g., engine bay), consider a higher-grade industrial sensor.
Is the HSPPAD042A suitable for drone altitude estimation?
Yes, the HSPPAD042A is widely used in consumer and prosumer drones for barometric altitude hold. The 300 hPa lower limit covers altitudes up to roughly 9000 m above sea level, and the 1.8 uA quiescent current keeps it suitable for battery-powered flight controllers. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the I2C interface allows the host MCU to trigger single-shot conversions at 50-100 Hz, sufficient for altitude-hold PID loops. Add a foam wind-cover over the sensor port to reduce propeller-wash pressure transients.
Is the HSPPAD042A RoHS compliant?
Yes, the HSPPAD042A is RoHS compliant per the LCSC listing and the Alps Alpine product page. The part is also lead-free, suitable for Pb-free reflow profiles up to 260C peak. For REACH and conflict-minerals declarations, contact Alps Alpine directly through the manufacturer compliance portal. The standard-grade device is not AEC-Q100 qualified; for automotive applications, evaluate a sensor with explicit automotive-grade certification.
What are the key specifications of the HSPPAD042A that engineers should know?
The HSPPAD042A is a digital absolute-pressure MEMS sensor with a 300-1100 hPa range, 1.7-3.6 V supply, 1.8 uA typical supply current, I2C interface at fixed address 0x48/0x49, -40C to +85C operating range, and 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P package. Per the Alps Alpine datasheet, the device conforms to Philips I2C-BUS Specification v2.1 and NXP UM10204 Rev.03, supports standard/fast mode I2C, and includes internal temperature compensation. These six parameters (range, supply, current, interface, address, package) define almost every design constraint.
What is the best cross-brand equivalent for the HSPPAD042A?
No widely-distributed cross-brand equivalent exists for the HSPPAD042A in the same 2 x 2.5 mm SMD-10P package with the same fixed 0x48/0x49 I2C address. The closest cross-brand schematic-level substitutes are the Bosch BMP280 (LGA-8, configurable address) and Infineon DPS310 (LGA-8, configurable address), but both require PCB layout rework. Engineers needing true drop-in alternatives should contact Alps Alpine for same-family HSPPAD042A variants or accept an adapter PCB. Validate any cross-brand swap against the noise, current, and temperature-coefficient parameters in your worst-case operating scenario.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale

  • Wide pressure range covering sea level to high altitude (vs. HSPPAD038A)
  • Low quiescent current for battery-powered designs (vs. HSPPAD042A_EVABOARD)
  • Factory revision B variant available for supply continuity (vs. HSPPAD042B)

Designhinweise

Place a 100 nF decoupling capacitor as close as possible to the VDD pin and route the I2C SDA/SCL traces as short as possible to minimize bus capacitance. Use 2.2 kOhm to 10 kOhm pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL, sized to balance rise-time against current draw at the chosen I2C clock rate. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the SMD-10P package should be oriented with pin 1 indicator matching the silkscreen mark on the PCB to avoid mirror-image soldering.

Avoid placing the HSPPAD042A directly over heat-generating components such as PMICs, inductors, or display drivers. Thermal gradients across the sensor die introduce pressure-offset errors that can shift altitude readings by tens of meters. According to the Alps Alpine datasheet, the device includes internal temperature compensation over -40C to +85C, but rapid localized heating still appears as an apparent pressure transient. Provide a thermal break (copper keep-out zone) around the sensor port for best results.

Do not assume the I2C address is configurable - the HSPPAD042A uses a fixed 0x48 (Write) / 0x49 (Read) address per Alps Alpine datasheet. If the host MCU shares the bus with another 0x48/0x49 device, add an I2C bus multiplexer or select a sensor variant with a configurable address. Also note that the device requires a settling time after power-on before the first valid conversion; consult the datasheet for the exact t_POR specification before issuing a read command.
