The MS5611 is a barometer and temperature sensor that communicates over I2C or SPI up to 20Mhz. Operating range: 10 to 1200 mbar, -40 to +85 °C.

Code Example

Ms5611 sensor;

public override Task Initialize()
{
Resolver.Log.Info("Initializing...");

sensor = new Ms5611(Device.CreateI2cBus());

var consumer = Ms5611.CreateObserver(
handler: result =>
{
Resolver.Log.Info($"Observer: Temp changed by threshold; new temp: {result.New.Temperature?.Celsius:N2}C, old: {result.Old?.Temperature?.Celsius:N2}C");
},
filter: result =>
{
if (result.Old is { } old)
{
return (
(result.New.Temperature.Value - old.Temperature.Value).Abs().Celsius > 0.5
&&
(result.New.Pressure.Value - old.Pressure.Value).Millibar > 0.5
);
}
return false;
}
);
sensor.Subscribe(consumer);

sensor.Updated += (sender, result) =>
{
Resolver.Log.Info($" Temperature: {result.New.Temperature?.Celsius:N2}C");
Resolver.Log.Info($" Pressure: {result.New.Pressure?.Millibar:N2}mbar ({result.New.Pressure?.Pascal:N2}Pa)");
};

return Task.CompletedTask;
}

public async override Task Run()
{
var conditions = await sensor.Read();
Resolver.Log.Info("Initial Readings:");
Resolver.Log.Info($" Temperature: {conditions.Temperature?.Celsius:N2}C");
Resolver.Log.Info($" Pressure: {conditions.Pressure?.Bar:N2}hPa");

sensor.StartUpdating(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
}
