Bosch GY65/BMP085 and BMP180 are high-precision, ultra-low power consumption pressure sensors. They operate in the range of 30,000-110,000 Pa.

This module has been tested on the GY65/BMP085 and BMP180 sensors.

    // Instantiate a BMPX8X sensor on I2C using defaults.
    upm::BMPX8X sensor;
    // Print the pressure, altitude, sea level, and
    // temperature values every 0.5 seconds
    while (shouldRun)
    {
        sensor.update();
        cout << "Pressure: "
             << sensor.getPressure()
             << " Pa, Temperature: "
             << sensor.getTemperature()

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BMPX8X	(	int	bus = `BMPX8X_DEFAULT_I2C_BUS`,
		int	addr = `BMPX8X_DEFAULT_I2C_ADDR`
	)

Instantiates a BMPX8X object

Parameters

bus	I2C bus to use.
addr	The I2C address of the device.

Exceptions

std::runtime_error on failure.

~BMPX8X ( )

virtual

BMPX8X object destructor.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Member Function Documentation

void update ( void )

Query the device and update the internal state. This method must be called before calling getPressure(), getTemperature(), getSealevelPressure(), and getAltitude() to retrieve values.

Exceptions

std::runtime_error on failure.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

void reset ( )

Reset the device to power-on defaults. All calibration data is lost when the device is reset, so you should call init() before attempting to use the device.

Exceptions

std::runtime_error on failure.

Here is the call graph for this function:

void init ( BMPX8X_OSS_T oss = BMPX8X_OSS_ULTRAHIGHRES )

Initialize the device, read calibration data, and start operation. This function is called from the constructor, so it will not typically need to be called by a user unless the device is reset.

Parameters

oss	One of the BMPX8X_OSS_T values. The default is BMPX8X_OSS_ULTRAHIGHRES.

Exceptions

std::runtime_error on failure.

Here is the call graph for this function:

void setOversampling ( BMPX8X_OSS_T oss = BMPX8X_OSS_ULTRAHIGHRES )

Set the oversampling (precision mode) of the device. Higher precision requires more time to complete. This call takes effect the next time update() is called.

Parameters

oss	One of the BMPX8X_OSS_T values. The default is BMPX8X_OSS_ULTRAHIGHRES.

Here is the call graph for this function:

int getPressure ( )

Returns the calculated pressure in Pascals. update() must have been called prior to calling this function.

Returns: The pressure in Pascals.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

float getTemperature ( void )

Returns the calculated temperature in Celsius. update() must have been called prior to calling this function.

Returns: The temperature in Celsius.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

int getSealevelPressure ( float meters )

Using the supplied altitude in meters, compute the pressure at sea level in Pascals. update() must have been called prior to calling this function.

Parameters

meters The altitude in meters.

Returns: The computed sea level pressure in Pascals.

Here is the call graph for this function:

int getSealevelPressure ( )

inline

Using the current calculated altitude, compute the pressure at sea level in Pascals. update() must have been called prior to calling this function.

Returns: The computed sea level pressure in Pascals.

Here is the call graph for this function:

float getAltitude ( int sealevelPressure = 101325 )

Calculate the current altitude in meters, given a sea level pressure in Pascals. The default sea level pressure is 101325 Pascals. update() must have been called prior to calling this function.

Parameters

sealevelPressure The pressure at sea level in Pascals. The default is 101325 Pascals.
