Hardware Overview

How does it work?

Manometer Click is based on the HSCMAND060PA3A3, a piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor from Honeywell, an industry-leading module with an extremely high accuracy of ±0.25%FSS BFSL. The click is designed to run on a 3.3V power supply. It communicates with the target MCU over the I2C interface. The HSCMAND060PA3A3 has an industry-leading, extremely high accuracy of ±0.25%FSS BFSL. An absolute pressure range from 0 to 60 PSI makes it suitable for various applications. Beyond the

measurement range, the sensor has a high burst pressure threshold, increasing reliability. The sensor on the Manometer Click is a highly reliable and robust unit. It's also easy to use and implement. It requires no calibration and compensates for environmental conditions by relying on its internal temperature sensor. The HSC Series is calibrated over the temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C (32 °F to 122 °F). The temperature sensor can also be accessed independently through the I2C interface. The

barbed port accepts 4.93 mm (0.19") tubing, which connects directly (no special extensions required). This Click board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before using MCUs with different logic levels. Also, it comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used as a reference for further development.

Features overview

Development board

Nucleo 32 with STM32F031K6 MCU board provides an affordable and flexible platform for experimenting with STM32 microcontrollers in 32-pin packages. Featuring Arduino™ Nano connectivity, it allows easy expansion with specialized shields, while being mbed-enabled for seamless integration with online resources. The

board includes an on-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer, supporting USB reenumeration with three interfaces: Virtual Com port, mass storage, and debug port. It offers a flexible power supply through either USB VBUS or an external source. Additionally, it includes three LEDs (LD1 for USB communication, LD2 for power,

and LD3 as a user LED) and a reset push button. The STM32 Nucleo-32 board is supported by various Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as IAR™, Keil®, and GCC-based IDEs like AC6 SW4STM32, making it a versatile tool for developers.

Application Output via Debug Mode

1. Once the code example is loaded, pressing the "DEBUG" button initiates the build process, programs it on the created setup, and enters Debug mode.

2. After the programming is completed, a header with buttons for various actions within the IDE becomes visible. Clicking the green "PLAY" button starts reading the results achieved with the Click board™. The achieved results are displayed in the Application Output tab.
