1 Introduction

• The BMP180 is a high precision, ultra-low power small digital pressure sensor for consumer applications in mobile phones, PDAs, GPS navigation devices and outdoor equipments. With a low altitude noise of merely 0.25m at fast conversion time, the BMP180 offers superior performance. The I2C interface allows for easy system integration with a microcontroller.
• The BMP180 is based on piezo-resistive technology for EMC robustness, high accuracy and linearity as well as long term stability.
• The BMP180 consists of a piezo-resistive sensor, an analog to digital converter and a control unit with E2PROM and a serial I2C interface. The E2PROM has stored 176 bit of individual calibration data. This is used to compensate offset, temperature dependence and other parameters of the sensor.

2 Features

• I2C，3.3V
• Pressure data(16 to 19 bit)
• Temperature data(16 bit)
• PCB Dimension(mm): 16 x 16

• Pin Description:

3 Basic Device Operation

• The mode (ultra low power, standard, high, ultra high resolution) can be selected by the variable oversampling_setting (0, 1, 2, 3) in the C code.
• Calculation of true temperature and pressure in steps of 1Pa (= 0.01hPa = 0.01mbar) and temperature in steps of 0.1°C.
• With the measured pressure p and the pressure at sea level p0 e.g. 1013.25hPa, the altitude in meters can be calculated with the international barometric formula:
• With the measured pressure p and the absolute altitude the pressure at sea level can be calculated:

Thus, a difference in altitude of ∆altitude = 10m corresponds to 1.2hPa pressure change at sea level.

5 Compile & Run Test Program

Boot your ARM board with Debian and copy the matrix code:

$ apt-get update && apt-get install git
$ git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git

If your cloning is done successfully a "matrix" directory will be generated.

Compile and install Matrix:

$ cd matrix
$ make && make install

Run test program:

$ matrix-pressure_temp

Note: this module is not plug and play therefore before running the module please make sure it is connected to an ARM board.
Here is what you should observe:

The temperature is 26.6 C
The pressure is 983.91 hPa
The altitude is 247.18

6 代码说明

所有的开发板都共用一套Matrix代码，本模块的测试示例代码为matrix-pressure_and_temperature_sensor，内容如下:

int main(int argc, char ** argv) 
{ 
    int ret = -1;
    int bmpTemp=0, bmpPressure=0;
    int board;
    float altitude = 0;
 
    if ((board = boardInit()) < 0) {
        printf("Fail to init board\n");
        return -1;
    }
 
    system("modprobe "DRIVER_MODULE);
    if ((ret = bmp180Read(BMP180_TEMP, &bmpTemp)) != -1) {
        printf("The temperature is %.1f C\n", (float)bmpTemp / 10);
    } else {
        printf("Faided to get humidity\n");
    }
    if ((ret = bmp180Read(BMP180_PRESSURE, &bmpPressure)) != -1) {
        printf("The pressure is %.2f hPa\n", (float)bmpPressure / 100);
    } else {
        printf("Faided to get pressure\n");
    }
 
    altitude = 44330 * ( 1 - pow( ((float)bmpPressure / 100 / 1013.25), (1/5.255) ) );
    printf("The altitude is %.2f m\n", altitude);
    system("rmmod "DRIVER_MODULE);
    return 0;
}
