MS5534A
BAROMETER MODULE
♦ Integrated pressure sensor
♦ Pressure range 300-1100 mbar
♦ 15 Bit ADC
♦ 6 coefficients for a software
compensation stored on-chip
♦ 3-wire serial interface
♦ 1 system clock line (32.768 kHz)
♦ Low voltage / low power
DESCRIPTION
The MS5534A is a SMD-hybrid device including a piezoresistive pressure sensor and an ADC-Interface IC. It
provides a 16 Bit data word from a pressure- and temperature-dependent voltage. Additionally the module
contains 6 readable coefficients for a highly accurate software calibration of the sensor. MS5534A is a low-
power, low-voltage device with automatic power down (ON/OFF) switching. A 3-wire interface is used for all
communications with a microcontroller. Sensor packaging options are plastic or metal cap.
