Gorillacell Module 049: Pressure Sensor
Table of Contents

Pressure Sensor is an input device used for measuring barometric pressure — the pressure exerted by the atmosphere. It is commonly used in applications such as altitude measurement, weather monitoring, and environmental sensing.
The Gorillacell ESP32 Development Kit comes with a Pressure Sensor module powered by the BMP280 driver IC. The BMP280 provides high-precision barometric pressure and temperature readings through a digital I²C or SPI interface, making it ideal for compact and low-power sensing applications.
BASIC INFORMATION
Device | Category | Interface | Chipset | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Input | Sensor Cell | Serial I2C | BMP280 | I2C = 0x76 |
PINOUT
It has 4 pins which are
- GND - for the ground pin,
- VCC - for the supply voltage,
- SDA – for the I2C serial data pin, and
- SCL – for the I2C serial clock pin.
The Pressure Sensor module with BMP280 driver chip can be access through I2C address 0x76.
