DPS310 Pressure / Altitude Sensor Breakout Board

Adafruit DPS310 Pressure / Altitude Sensor Breakout Board is based on the Infineon DPS310 high precision barometric sensor. This sensor is perfect for measuring altitude changes with an up to ±0.002hPa (or ±0.02m) high precision mode and ± 1hPa absolute accuracy. This feature makes it great for use in drones or other altitude-sensitive robots. This sensor can also do well in any environmental sensing kit, as it can be used to predict weather system changes. The sensor can be used with either I²C or SPI interfaces so that it's easy to integrate. It has a temperature sensor built-in with ± 0.5°C accuracy. The DPS310 can be used from 300 to 1200hPa and in ambient temperature ranges, from -40 to 85°C. The sensor is put on a breakout PCB along with support circuitry to allow the user to use it with 3.3V (Feather/Raspberry Pi) or 5V (Arduino/ Metro328) logic levels. Since the I²C interface is included, the user can easily connect it up with two wires. The SparkFun qwiic compatible STEMMA QT connectors are included for the I2C bus, so there is no need solder. The user just wires up to their favorite microcontroller. The user can use Adafruit CircuitPython / Python or Arduino drivers to easily interface with the DPS310.
