BMP384 enables accurate altitude tracking and is specifically suited for drone applications. The best-in-class TCO between -20-65°C for accurate altitude measurement over a wide temperature range of the BMP384 greatly enhance the drone flying experience by making accurate steering easier. It is compatible for use with other Bosch sensors, including the new BMI088 for better performance, robustness and stability. The new BMP384 sensor offers outstanding design flexibility, providing a single package solution that can be also easily integrated into other existing and upcoming devices such as smart homes, industrial products and wearables.
The sensor is more accurate than its predecessor BMP280, covering a wide measurement range from 300 hPa to 1250 hPa.
This new barometric pressure sensor exhibits an attractive price-performance ratio coupled with low power consumption.
It is available in a compact 10-in 2.0 x 2.0 x 0.95 mm³ LGA package with metal lid
Due to the built-in hardware synchronization of the pressure sensor data and its ability to synchronize data from external devices such as acceleration sensors, the BMP384 is ideally suited for fitness and navigation applications which require highly accurate, low power and low latency sensor data fusion.
The new interrupt functionality provides simple access to data and storage. Examples of interrupts than can be used in a power efficient manner without using software algorithms include: Data ready interrupt, watermark interrupt (on byte level) or FIFO full interrupt.
BMP384 also includes a new FIFO functionality. This greatly improves ease of use while helping to reduce power consumption of the overall device system during full operation. The integrated 512 byte FIFO buffer supports low power applications and prevents data loss in non-real-time systems.
