Differential Pressure Sensor(±500pa) Wiki - DFRobot

Introduction

This high-resolution differential pressure sensor with I2C communication is used to measure the difference in pressure across two points on a device. A high-performance MEMS pressure chip and a special conditioning chip are encapsulated inside the sensor. It will give you a comparative measurement between two points. Besides, the sensor IC adopts a unique multi-stage temperature-compensation algorithm to reduce the effect of environment on the output.
