Description
The LPS225HB is an ultra-compact piezoresistive
absolute pressure sensor. It includes a monolithic
sensing element and an IC interface which
communicates a digital signal from the sensing
element to the application.
Features
26 to 126 kPa absolute pressure range
High-resolution mode: 1 Pa RMS
Low-power mode: 3.5 Pa RMS
Current consumption down to 4 μA
High overpressure capability: 20x full scale
Embedded temperature compensation
Embedded 24-bit ADC
The sensing element, which detects absolute
pressure, consists of a suspended membrane
inside a single mono-silicon substrate and is
manufactured using a dedicated process
developed by ST.
The membrane is very small compared to the
traditionally built silicon micromachined
membranes. Membrane breakage is prevented
by an intrinsic mechanical stopper.
ODR from 1 Hz to 75 Hz
SPI and I²C interfaces
Embedded FIFO
Interrupt functions: Data Ready, FIFO flags,
pressure thresholds
Supply voltage: 1.7 to 3.6 V
Small and thin package
ECOPACK® lead-free compliant
The IC interface is manufactured using a standard
CMOS process that allows a high level of
integration to design a dedicated circuit which is
trimmed to better match the characteristics of the
sensing element.
The LPS225HB is available in a full-mold, holed
LGA package (HLGA). It is guaranteed to operate
over a temperature range extending from -40 °C
to +85 °C. The package is holed to allow external
pressure to reach the sensing element.

Functionality
Functionality
The LPS225HB is a high-resolution, digital output pressure sensor packaged in an HLGA
full-mold package. The complete device includes a sensing element based on a
piezoresistive Wheatstone bridge approach, and an IC interface which communicates a
digital signal from the sensing element to the application.
3.1
Sensing element
An ST proprietary process is used to obtain a mono-silicon μ-sized membrane for MEMS
pressure sensors without requiring substrate-to-substrate bonding. When pressure is
applied, the membrane deflection induces an imbalance in the Wheatstone bridge
piezoresistances whose output signal is converted by the IC interface.
3.2
I2C interface
The complete measurement chain is composed of a low-noise amplifier which converts the
resistance unbalancing of the MEMS sensors (pressure and temperature) into an analog
voltage using an analog-to-digital converter.
The pressure and temperature data may be accessed through an I²C/SPI interface, thus
making the device particularly suitable for direct interfacing with a microcontroller.
The LPS225HB features a Data-Ready signal which indicates when a new set of measured
pressure and temperature data are available, thus simplifying data synchronization in the
digital system that uses the device.
3.3
Factory calibration
The IC interface is factory calibrated at three temperatures and two pressures for sensitivity
and accuracy.
The trimming values are stored inside the device in a non-volatile structure. When the
device is turned on, the trimming parameters are downloaded into the registers to be
employed during normal operation which allows the device to be used without requiring any
further calibration.

FIFO

LPS225HB
FIFO
The LPS225HB embeds 32 slots of 40-bit data FIFO to store the pressure and temperature
output values. This allows consistent power saving for the system, since the host processor
does not need to continuously poll data from the sensor, but it can wake up only when
needed and burst the significant data out from the FIFO. This buffer can work according to
seven different modes: Bypass mode, FIFO mode, Stream mode, Dynamic-Stream mode,
Stream-to-FIFO mode, Bypass-to-Stream and Bypass-to-FIFO mode. The FIFO buffer is
enabled when the FIFO_EN bit in CTRL_REG2 (11h) is set to '1' and each mode is selected
by the FIFO_MODE[2:0] bits in FIFO_CTRL (14h). Programmable FIFO threshold status,
FIFO overrun events and the number of unread samples stored are available in the
FIFO_STATUS (26h) register and can be set to generate dedicated interrupts on the
INT_DRDY pad using the CTRL_REG3 (12h) register.
FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FTH_FIFO) goes to '1' when the number of unread samples
(FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FSS5:0)) is greater than or equal to WTM[4:0] in FIFO_CTRL (14h).
If FIFO_CTRL (14h)(WTM4:0) is equal to 0, FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FTH_FIFO) goes to '0'.
FIFO_STATUS (26h)(OVRN) is equal to '1' if a FIFO slot is overwritten.
FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FSS5:0) contains stored data levels of unread samples; when
FSS[5:0] is equal to '000000', FIFO is empty, when FSS[5:0] is equal to '100000', FIFO is full
and the unread samples are 32.
To guarantee the switching into and out of FIFO mode, discard the first sample acquired.
4.1
Bypass mode
In Bypass mode (FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0)=000), the FIFO is not operational and it
remains empty.
Bypass mode is also used to reset the FIFO when in FIFO mode.
As described in the next figure, for each channel only the first address is used. When new
data is available, the older data is overwritten.
Every time Bypass mode is selected, FIFO content is flushed.

FIFO
FIFO mode
In FIFO mode (FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0) = 001) data from the output
PRESS_OUT_XL (28h), PRESS_OUT_L (29h), PRESS_OUT_H (2Ah) and TEMP_OUT_L
(2Bh), TEMP_OUT_H (2Ch) are stored in the FIFO until it is overwritten.
To reset FIFO content, in Bypass mode the value '000' must be written in FIFO_CTRL
(14h)(FMODE2:0). After this reset command, it is possible to restart FIFO mode writing the
value '001' in FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0).
The FIFO buffer memorizes 32 levels of data but the depth of the FIFO can be resized by
setting the CTRL_REG2 (11h)(STOP_ON_FTH) bit. If the STOP_ON_FTH bit is set to '1',
FIFO depth is limited to FIFO_CTRL (14h)(WTM4:0) + 1 data.
A FIFO threshold interrupt can be enabled (F_OVR bit in CTRL_REG3 (12h) in order to be
raised when the FIFO is filled to the level specified by the WTM4:0 bits of FIFO_CTRL
(14h). When a FIFO threshold interrupt occurs, the first data has been overwritten and the
FIFO stops collecting data from the input pressure and temperature.

LPS225HB
Stream mode
Stream mode (FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0) = 010) provides continuous FIFO update: as
new data arrive, the older is discarded.
Once the entire FIFO has been read, the last data read remains in the FIFO and hence once
a new sample is acquired, the FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FSS5:0) value rises from 0 to 2.
An overrun interrupt can be enabled, CTRL_REG3 (12h)(F_OVR) = '1', in order to inform
when the FIFO is full and eventually read its content all at once. If an overrun occurs, the
oldest sample in FIFO is overwritten, so if the FIFO was empty, the lost sample has already
been read.
Figure 7. Stream mode
In the latter case reading all FIFO content before an overrun interrupt has occurred, the first
data read is equal to the last already read in the previous burst, so the number of new data
available in FIFO depends on the previous reading.

4.4
FIFO
Dynamic-Stream mode
In Dynamic-Stream mode (FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0) = 110) after emptying the FIFO,
the first new sample that arrives becomes the first to be read in a subsequent read burst. In
this way, the number of new data available in FIFO does not depend on the previous
reading.
In Dynamic-Stream mode FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FSS5:0) is the number of new pressure and
temperature samples available in the FIFO buffer.
Stream Mode is intended to be used to read all 32 samples of FIFO within an ODR after
receiving an overrun signal.
Dynamic-Stream is intended to be used to read FIFO_STATUS (26h)(FSS5:0) samples
when it is not possible to guarantee reading data within an ODR.
Also, a FIFO threshold interrupt on the INT_DRDY pad through CTRL_REG3 (12h)(F_FTH)
can be enabled in order to read data from the FIFO and leave free memory slots for
incoming data.

Stream-to-FIFO mode
In Stream-to-FIFO mode (FIFO_CTRL (14h)(FMODE2:0) = 011), FIFO behavior changes
according to the INT_SOURCE(IA) bit. When the INT_SOURCE(IA) bit is equal to '1', FIFO
operates in FIFO mode. When the INT_SOURCE(IA) bit is equal to '0', FIFO operates in
Stream mode.
An interrupt generator can be set to the desired configuration through INTERRUPT_CFG
(0Bh).
The INTERRUPT_CFG (0Bh)(LIR) bit should be set to '1' in order to have latched interrupt.

Retrieving data from FIFO
FIFO data is read from PRESS_OUT (Addr. reg 28h, 29h, 2Ah) and TEMP_OUT (Addr. reg
2Bh, 2Ch).
Each time data is read from the FIFO, the oldest data are placed in the PRESS_OUT_XL
(28h), PRESS_OUT_L (29h), PRESS_OUT_H (2Ah), TEMP_OUT_L (2Bh) and
TEMP_OUT_H (2Ch) registers and both single-read and read-burst operations can be
used.
The device automatically updates the reading address and it rolls back to 28h when register
2Ch is reached. In order to read all FIFO levels in multiple byte reading, 160 bytes (5 output
registers by 32 levels) must be read.

I2C serial interface (CS = High)
The LPS225HB I²C is a bus slave. The I²C is employed to write data into registers whose
content can also be read back.
The relevant I²C terminology is given in Table 9.
Table 9. I2C terminology
Term
Description
Transmitter The device which sends data to the bus
Receiver
The device which receives data from the bus
Master
The device which initiates a transfer, generates clock signals and terminates a transfer
Slave
The device addressed by the master
There are two signals associated with the I²C bus: the serial clock line (SCL) and the serial
data line (SDA). The latter is a bidirectional line used for sending and receiving the data
to/from the interface. Both lines have to be connected to Vdd_IO through pull-up resistors.
The I²C interface is compliant with fast mode (400 kHz) I²C standards as well as with the
normal mode.

6.2.1
Digital interfaces
I2C operation
The transaction on the bus is started through a START (ST) signal. A start condition is
defined as a HIGH-to-LOW transition on the data line while the SCL line is held HIGH. After
this has been transmitted by the master, the bus is considered busy. The next data byte
transmitted after the start condition contains the address of the slave in the first 7 bits and
the eighth bit tells whether the master is receiving data from the slave or transmitting data to
the slave. When an address is sent, each device in the system compares the first seven bits
after a start condition with its address. If they match, the device considers itself addressed by
the master.
The slave address (SAD) associated to the LPS225HB is 101110xb. The SDO/SA0 pad can
be used to modify the less significant bit of the device address. If the SA0 pad is connected
to voltage supply, LSb is ‘1’ (address 1011101b), otherwise if the SA0 pad is connected to
ground, the LSb value is ‘0’ (address 1011100b). This solution permits to connect and
address two different LPS225HB devices to the same I²C lines.
Data transfer with acknowledge is mandatory. The transmitter must release the SDA line
during the acknowledge pulse. The receiver must then pull the data line LOW so that it
remains stable low during the HIGH period of the acknowledge clock pulse. A receiver which
has been addressed is obliged to generate an acknowledge after each byte of data received.
The I²C embedded in the LPS225HB behaves like a slave device and the following protocol
must be adhered to. After the start condition (ST) a slave address is sent, once a slave
acknowledge (SAK) has been returned, an 8-bit sub-address (SUB) will be transmitted: the 7
LSB represents the actual register address while the MSB enables address auto increment.
If the MSb of the SUB field is ‘1’, the SUB (register address) will be automatically increased
to allow multiple data read/write.
The slave address is completed with a Read/Write bit. If the bit is ‘1’ (Read), a repeated
START (SR) condition must be issued after the two sub-address bytes; if the bit is ‘0’ (Write)
the master will transmit to the slave with direction unchanged. Table 10 explains how the
SAD+read/write bit pattern is composed, listing all the possible configurations.

Data are transmitted in byte format (DATA). Each data transfer contains 8 bits. The number
of bytes transferred per transfer is unlimited. Data is transferred with the most significant bit
(MSb) first. If a receiver can’t receive another complete byte of data until it has performed
some other functions, it can hold the clock line, SCL LOW to force the transmitter into a wait
state. Data transfer only continues when the receiver is ready for another byte and releases
the data line. If a slave receiver does not acknowledge the slave address (i.e. it is not able to
receive because it is performing some real-time function) the data line must be kept HIGH by
the slave. The master can then abort the transfer. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on the SDA line
while the SCL line is HIGH is defined as a STOP condition. Each data transfer must be
terminated by the generation of a STOP (SP) condition.
In order to read multiple bytes incrementing the register address, it is necessary to assert
the most significant bit of the sub-address field. In other words, SUB(7) must be equal to 1
while SUB(6-0) represents the address of the first register to be read.
In the presented communication format MAK is Master acknowledge and NMAK is no
master acknowledge.

SPI bus interface
The LPS225HB SPI is a bus slave. The SPI allows writing to and reading from the registers
of the device.
The serial interface interacts with the application using 4 wires: CS, SPC, SDI and SDO.

CS is the serial port enable and it is controlled by the SPI master. It goes low at the start of
the transmission and returns to high at the end. SPC is the serial port clock and it is
controlled by the SPI master. It is stopped high when CS is high (no transmission). SDI and
SDO are respectively the serial port data input and output. Those lines are driven at the
falling edge of SPC and should be captured at the rising edge of SPC.
Both the read register and write register commands are completed in 16 clock pulses or in
multiples of 8 in the case of multiple read/write bytes. Bit duration is the time between two
falling edges of SPC. The first bit (bit 0) starts at the first falling edge of SPC after the falling
edge of CS while the last bit (bit 15, bit 23,...) starts at the last falling edge of SPC just before
the rising edge of CS.
bit 0: RW bit. When 0, the data DI(7:0) is written into the device. When 1, the data DO(7:0)
from the device is read. In the latter case, the chip will drive SDO at the start of bit 8.
bit 1-7: address AD(6:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.
bit 8-15: data DI(7:0) (write mode). This is the data that is written into the device (MSb first).
bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that is read from the device (MSb first).
In multiple read/write commands further blocks of 8 clock periods are added. When the
IF_ADD_INC bit is 0 the address used to read/write data remains the same for every block.
When the IF_ADD_INC bit is 1 the address used to read/write data is increased at every
block.
The function and the behavior of SDI and SDO remain unchanged.

Register mapping
LPS225HB
Registers marked as Reserved must not be changed. Writing to those registers may cause
permanent damage to the device.
To guarantee the proper behavior of the device, all register addresses not listed in the above
table must not be accessed and the content stored in those registers must not be changed.
The content of the registers that are loaded at boot should not be changed. They contain the
factory calibration values. Their content is automatically restored when the device is
powered up.

[4] RESET_AZ: Reset Autozero function. Reset RIF_P reg. (address 15h, 16h, 17h),
set pressure reference to default value RPDS reg (address 18h, 19h).
Default value: 0
[3] DIFF_EN: Enable interrupt generation. Default value: 0
(0: interrupt generation disabled; 1: interrupt generation enabled)
[2] LIR: Latch interrupt request to the INT_SOURCE (25h) register. Default value: 0
(0: interrupt request not latched; 1: interrupt request latched)
[1] PLE: Enable interrupt generation on differential pressure low event.
Default value: 0
(0: disable interrupt request; 1: enable interrupt request on measured differential
pressure value lower than preset threshold)
[0] PHE: Enable interrupt generation on differential pressure high event.
Default value: 0
(0: disable interrupt request; 1: enable interrupt request on measured differential
pressure value higher than preset threshold)
AUTORIFP, when written to ‘1’, an internal register is set with current pressure values and
the bit is forced to ‘0’. From that point on the content of the internal register is subtracted
from the pressure output value and result is used for the interrupt generation. The output
registers (PRESS_OUT_XL (28h), PRESS_OUT_L (29h), PRESS_OUT_H (2Ah)) are
updated with the actual pressure value.
The RESET_ARP bit is used to disable the AutoRifP function. RESET_ARP is self-cleared.

AUTOZERO, when set to ‘1’, the actual pressure output value is copied in the REF_P
registers. From that point on, the content of the Ref_P registers is subtracted from the
pressure output value. To disable autozero, the REF_P registers have to be cleared.
The RESET_AZ bit is used to reset the AutoZero function. Resetting REF_P reg (15h, 16h,
17h) sets the pressure reference to the default value in the RPDS reg (18h, 19h).
RESET_AZ is self-cleared.
The DIFF_EN bit is used to enable the computing of the differential pressure output. It is
recommended to enable DIFF_EN after the configuration of REF_P_x and THS_P_x.

The BDU bit is used to inhibit the update of the output registers between the reading of upper
and lower register parts. In default mode (BDU = ‘0’), the lower and upper register parts are
updated continuously. When the BDU is activated (BDU = ‘1’), the content of the output
registers is not updated until both MSB and LSB are read which avoids reading values
related to different samples.
The SIM bit selects the SPI serial interface mode:
0: (default value) 4-wire SPI interface mode selected
1: 3-wire SPI interface mode selected

Description:
The BOOT bit is used to refresh the content of the internal registers stored in the
Flash memory block. At device power-up the content of the Flash memory block is
transferred to the internal registers related to the trimming functions to permit good
behavior of the device itself. If for any reason the content of the trimming registers is
modified, it is sufficient to use this bit to restore the correct values. When the BOOT bit
is set to ‘1’, the content of the internal Flash is copied inside the corresponding internal
registers and is used to calibrate the device. These values are factory trimmed and
they are different for every device. They permit good behavior of the device and
normally they should not be changed. At the end of the boot process the BOOT bit is
set again to ‘0’ by hardware. The BOOT bit takes effect after one ODR clock cycle.
The SWRESET bit resets the following registers to the default value and returns to
‘0’ by hardware. During a software reset FIFO content is flushed.

The ONE_SHOT bit is used to start a new conversion when the ODR[2,0] bits in
CTRL_REG1 (10h) are set to ‘000’. If the ONE_SHOT bit is set during a Normal Mode
measurement, nothing happens. Write ‘1’ in ONE_SHOT to trigger a single
measurement of pressure and temperature. Once the measurement is done, the
ONE_SHOT bit will self-clear, the new data are available in the output registers, and
the STATUS_REG bits are updated. If ONE_SHOT bit is set while the one-shot
measurement is running, at the end of the current measurement a new one-shot
measurement starts.
