Typical Applications

LPS22HII is suitable for 6 applications: Altimeter for Drones, Weather Station Barometer, Smartphone Altimeter, Wearable Fitness Tracker, IoT Environmental Node, GPS Dead Reckoning.

✈️

Altimeter for Drones

The LPS22HII provides precise altitude data for drone flight stabilization and landing. Its low noise (0.0075 hPa RMS) enables altitude resolution of approximately 6 cm, which is critical for smooth altitude hold and safe landing. The sensor's small LGA-10 package (2x2x0.7mm) fits easily into drone flight controllers. In a typical drone application, the LPS22HII is connected to the flight controller via I2C, with the INT_DRDY pin triggering altitude updates. The sensor's low power consumption (12 uA at 1 Hz) extends flight time. Compared to GPS-only altitude, the barometer provides faster response and better accuracy in indoor or GPS-denied environments. Designers should ensure the pressure port is exposed to ambient air but protected from prop wash to avoid dynamic pressure errors.

Weather Station Barometer

The LPS22HII measures atmospheric pressure with 0.5 hPa accuracy, making it suitable for weather stations. It can detect pressure trends for weather forecasting. The sensor's 24-bit resolution and low noise allow detection of pressure changes as small as 0.0075 hPa, which is essential for accurate trend analysis. In a weather station, the LPS22HII is typically placed in a ventilated enclosure to avoid direct sunlight and wind. The I2C interface connects to a microcontroller that logs data over time. The sensor's wide pressure range (260-1260 hPa) covers all terrestrial atmospheric pressures. The embedded temperature sensor provides additional environmental data. For best accuracy, the sensor should be calibrated against a reference barometer. The low power consumption enables battery-powered weather stations that run for months.

Higher pressure resolution (24-bit) (vs BMP388)

Design Notes

Ensure the pressure port is open to ambient air. Place the sensor away from heat sources and air vents to avoid pressure and temperature errors. Use a small hole in the enclosure with a mesh to protect against dust and water.

Decouple the VDD pin with a 100nF capacitor placed as close as possible to the sensor. For noisy supplies, add a 1uF capacitor in parallel. The sensor operates from 1.7V to 3.6V, so ensure the supply is within this range.

Do not cover the pressure port with solder mask or conformal coating. Avoid placing the sensor near vibrating components, as mechanical stress can affect readings. Use the FIFO to reduce host wake-ups and save power.
