The main function of the MS5561C is to convert the uncompensated analogue output voltage from the piezo-resistive pressure sensor to a 16-bit digital value, as well as providing a 16-bit digital value for the temperature of the sensor. Measured pressure (16-bit) Measured temperature (16-bit) "D1" "D2" As the output voltage of a pressure sensor is strongly dependent on temperature and process tolerances, it is necessary to compensate for these effects. This compensation procedure must be performed by software using an external microcontroller. D1 Pressure Sensor D2 Word 1..4 Calculation in external microcontroller Temperature For both pressure and temperature measurement the same ADC is used (sigma delta converter): * * for the pressure measurement, the differential output voltage from the pressure sensor is converted for the temperature measurement, the sensor bridge resistor is sensed and converted During both measurements the sensor will only be switched on for a very short time in order to reduce power consumption. As both, the bridge bias and the reference voltage for the ADC are derived from V DD , the digital output data is independent of the supply voltage. FACTORY CALIBRATION Every module is individually factory calibrated at two temperatures and two pressures. As a result, 6 coefficients necessary to compensate for process variations and temperature variations are calculated and stored in the 64bit PROM of each module. These 64-bit (partitioned into four words of 16-bit) must be read by the microcontroller software and used in the program converting D1 and D2 into compensated pressure and temperature values. PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT The sequence of reading pressure and temperature as well as of performing the software compensation is depicted in Fig. 3 and Fig. 5. First Word1 to Word4 have to be read through the serial interface. This can be done once after reset of the microcontroller that interfaces to the MS5561C. Next, the compensation coefficients C1 to C6 are extracted using bit-wise logical- and shift-operations (refer to Fig. 4 for the bit-pattern of Word1 to Word4). For the pressure measurement, the microcontroller has to read the 16-bit values for pressure (D1) and temperature (D2) via the serial interface in a loop (for instance every second). Then, the compensated pressure is calculated out of D1, D2 and C1 to C6 according to the algorithm in Fig. 3 (possibly using quadratic temperature compensation according to Fig. 5). All calculations can be performed with signed 16-bit variables. Results of multiplications may be up to 32-bit long (+sign). In the flow according to Fig. 3 a division follows each DA5561C_004 0005561C1126 ECN1405 www.meas-spec.com 9/20 May 21, 2012 MS5561C Micro Altimeter multiplication. This division can be performed by bit-wise shifting (divisors are to the power of 2). It is ensured that the results of these divisions are less than 65536 (16 bit). For the timing of signals to read out Word1 to Word4, D1, and D2 please refer to the paragraph "Serial Interface".

This can be achieved by correcting the calculated temperature and pressure by a second order correction factor. The second-order factors are calculated as follows: 200 TEMP 450 TEMP < 200 yes TEMP > 450 yes yes No correction Low Temperatures T2 = 11*(C6+24)*(200 - TEMP)*(200 - TEMP) / 220 14 P2 = 3 *T2 * (P - 3500)/2 High Temperatures T2 = 0 T2 = 3*(C6+24)*(450 - TEMP)*(450 - TEMP) / 220 P2 = 0 P2 = T2 * (P - 10000)/213 Calculate pressure and temperature TEMP = TEMP - T2 P = P - P2 Fig. 5: Flow chart for calculating the temperature and pressure to the optimum accuracy. DA5561C_004 0005561C1126 ECN1405 www.meas-spec.com 12/20 May 21, 2012 MS5561C Micro Altimeter SERIAL INTERFACE The MS5561C communicates with microprocessors and other digital systems via a 3-wire synchronous serial interface as shown in Fig. 1. The SCLK (Serial clock) signal initiates the communication and synchronizes the data transfer with each bit being sampled by the MS5561C on the rising edge of SCLK and each bit being sent by the MS5561C on the rising edge of SCLK. The data should thus be sampled by the microcontroller on the falling edge of SCLK and sent to the MS5561C with the falling edge of SCLK. The SCLK-signal is generated by the microprocessor's system. The digital data provided by the MS5561C on the DOUT pin is either the conversion result or the software calibration data. In addition, the signal DOUT (Data out) is also used to indicate the conversion status (conversion-ready signal, see below). The selection of the output data is done by sending the corresponding instruction on the pin DIN (Data input). Following is a list of possible output data instructions: * * * * * * * Conversion start for pressure measurement and ADC-data-out Conversion start for temperature measurement and ADC-data-out Calibration data read-out sequence for Word1 Calibration data read-out sequence for Word2 Calibration data read-out sequence for Word3 Calibration data read-out sequence for Word4 RESET sequence "D1" "D2" (Figure 6a) (Figure 6b) (Figure 6c) (Figure 6d) (Figure 6c) (Figure 6d) (Figure 6e) Every communication starts with an instruction sequence at pin DIN. Fig. 6 shows the timing diagrams for the MS5561C. The device does not need a `Chip select' signal. Instead there is a START sequence (3-Bit high) before each SETUP sequence and STOP sequence (3-Bit low) after each SETUP sequence. The SETUP sequence consists in 4-Bit that select a reading of pressure, temperature or calibration data. In case of pressure- (D1) or temperature- (D2) reading the module acknowledges the start of a conversion by a low to high transition at pin DOUT. Two additional clocks at SCLK are required after the acknowledge signal. Then SCLK is to be held low by the microcontroller until a high to low transition on DOUT indicates the end of the conversion. This signal can be used to create an interrupt in the microcontroller. The microcontroller may now read out the 16 bit word by giving another 17 clocks on the SLCK pin. It is possible to interrupt the data READOUT sequence with a hold of the SCLK signal. It is important to always read out the last conversion result before starting a new conversion. Conversion start for pressure measurement and ADC-data-out "D1": end of conversion start of conversion conversion (33ms) ADC-data out MSB DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DIN DOUT SCLK The RESET sequence is special as the module in any state recognizes its unique pattern. By consequence, it can be used to restart if synchronization between the microcontroller and the MS5561C has been lost. This sequence is 21-bit long. The DOUT signal might change during that sequence (see Fig. 6e). It is recommended to send the RESET sequence before each CONVERSION sequence to avoid hanging up the protocol permanently in case of electrical interference.

The main application field for this system includes portable devices with battery supply, but its high accuracy and resolution make it also suited for industrial and automotive applications. The possibility to compensate the sensor by software allows the user to adapt it to his particular application. Communication between the MS5561C and the widely available microcontrollers is realized over an easy-to-use 3-wire serial interface. Customers may select which microcontroller system to be used, and there are no specific standard interface cells required, which may be of interest for specially designed 4 bit-microcontroller applications. For communication via SPI interface please refer to application note AN510 that may be downloaded from the MEAS Switzerland website. CALIBRATION The MS5561C is factory calibrated. The calibration data is stored inside the 64 bit PROM memory. SOLDERING Please refer to the application note AN808 for all soldering issues. HUMIDITY, WATER PROTECTION This module is designed for the integration into portable devices and sufficiently protected against humidity. A silicone gel for enhanced protection against humidity covers the membrane of the pressure transducer. The module must not be used for under water applications. LIGHT SENSITIVITY The MS5561C is protected against sunlight by a layer of white gel. It is, however, important to note that the sensor may still be slightly sensitive to sunlight, especially to infrared light sources. This is due to the strong photo effect of silicon. As the effect is reversible there will be no damage, but the user has to take care that in the final product the sensor cannot be exposed to direct light during operation. DECOUPLING CAPACITOR Particular care must be taken when connecting the device to power supply. A 47 F tantalum capacitor must be placed as close as possible of the MS5561C's VDD pin. This capacitor will stabilize the power supply during data conversion and thus, provide the highest possible accuracy. DA5561C_004 0005561C1126 ECN1405 www.meas-spec.com 15/20 May 21, 2012 MS5561C Micro Altimeter APPLICATION EXAMPLE: ALTIMETER SYSTEM USING MS5561C MS5561C is a circuit that can be used in connection with a microcontroller in mobile altimeter applications. It is designed for low-voltage systems with a supply voltage of 3V, particularly in battery applications. The MS5561C is optimised for low current consumption as the AD-converter clock (MCLK) can use the 32.768 kHz frequency of a standard watch crystal, which is supplied in most portable watch systems. For applications in altimeter systems MEAS Switzerland can deliver a simple formula to calculate the altitude, based on a linear interpolation, where the number of interpolation points influences the accuracy of the formula. 3V-Battery LCD-Display VDD XTAL1 32.768 kHz MS5561C VDD 47uF Tantal XTAL2 Keypad MCLK DIN DOUT SCLK GND Microcontroller GND EEPROM optional Figure 7: Demonstration of MS5561C in a mobile altimeter RECOMMENDED PAD LAYOUT Pad layout for bottom side of MS5561C soldered onto printed circuit board.

It will not be damaged by the vacuum. Due to the low stress assembly the sensor does not show pressure hysteresis effects. It is important to solder all contact pads to avoid floating of the sensor during soldering. The pins PEN and PV shall be left open or connected to VDD. Do not connect the pins PEN and PV to GND! CLEANING The MS5561C has been manufactured under cleanroom conditions. Each device has been inspected for the homogeneity and the cleanness of the silicone gel. It is therefore recommended to assemble the sensor under class 10'000 or better conditions. Should this not be possible, it is recommended to protect the sensor opening during assembly from entering particles and dust. To avoid cleaning of the PCB, solder paste of type "no-clean" shall be used. Cleaning might damage the sensor! ESD PRECAUTIONS The electrical contacts except programming pads are protected against ESD up to 4 kV HBM (human body model). The MS5561C is shipped in antistatic transport boxes. Any test adapters or production transport boxes used during the assembly of the sensor shall be of an equivalent antistatic material.
