With temperature, if there is one characteristic physical quantity of the past or future weather, it is certainly atmospheric pressure. The variations of this quantity are particularly interesting for weather forecasting: a decrease in pressure invariably heralds the arrival of rain, while a significant increase is a certain sign of improvement or persistent good weather. […]

HX710B Air Pressure Sensor Datasheet, How to Connect
The HX710B Air Pressure Sensor Module monitors the air’s pressure in the range of 0 to 40 kilopascals (kPa) and turns it into an electrical impulse which microcontrollers or other electrical gadgets can interpret and read. It is a common and frequently utilized sensor in a wide range of applications that demand precise pressure sensing, […]
Pressure Switch Water Pump Controller Circuit
A pressure switch is a device which can be used for detecting water pressure in a tank and operate a water pump motor when the pressure gets too low, or the water in the tank goes lower than a desired minimum level. In this post I have explained a water pressure controller circuit for maintaining […]
Pressure Cooker Whistle Counter Circuit
This circuit is designed to sense the whistles from a pressure cooker and count the number over a digital display. The system relieves the user from the stress of constantly monitoring the cooker and from manually counting the whistles. The idea was requested by Mr. P.K. Bajpai Design Concept In many of the Asian countries […]
Arduino Barometric Pressure Sensor Circuit – Working and Interfacing Details
In this article we are going to explore, what is a Barometer and how to interface a barometric BMP180 sensor with Arduino. We will also be exploring some of its important specification and finally I have explained how to predict weather using barometric readings. What is Barometer? Barometer is an instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure. […]
