Overview
This weather sensor xCHIP is equipped with a weather (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather)
sensor that is capable of measuring the temperature (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature),
humidity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity) and atmospheric pressure (https://en.wikipedia.or
g/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure).
The humidity sensor provides an extremely fast responce time for fast context awareness
application and high overall accuracy over a wide temperature range.
The pressure sensor is an absolute barometric pressure sensor with extremely high accuracy and
resolution.
The integrated temperature sensor has been optimized for lowest noise and highest resolution. Its
output is used for temperature compensation of the pressure and humidity sensors and can also be
used for estimation of the ambient temperature.
Product Highlights
