Integrate precise 3-axis acceleration and pressure sensing for seamless vertical velocity determination using the FXLS8974CF and MPL3115A2 combo
Accel&Pressure Click is a compact add-on board representing a rate-of-climb sensing solution for your application. This board features the FXLS8974CF, a 3-axis low-g accelerometer, and the MPL3115A2, a precision pressure sensor with altimetry, both from NXP Semiconductor. Those two sensors are high-performance, low-power devices covering all of Earth's surface elevations. By combining the acceleration and the barometric pressure data, you can easily determine the vertical velocity (the rate of climb) of the device on which the Accel&Pressure Click is integrated. This Click board™ makes the perfect solution for the development of vertical velocity applications and similar devices.

ABOUT CLICK BOARDS™
Click boards™ follow a modular prototyping add-on board standard invented by MIKROE, which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. Click boards™ enable design engineers to change peripherals easily, cutting months off development time. To enable hundreds of Click boards to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor, we have invented socket standard - mikroBUS™. This uniform connection interface allows you to connect any Click boards to a main board instantly. The company releases a new Click boards nearly every day at 10am, and many leading microcontroller companies including Microchip, NXP, Infineon, Dialog, STM, Analog Devices, Renesas and Toshiba now include the mikroBUS™ socket on their development boards.
ABOUT MIKROE
MikroElektronika (MIKROE) is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of industry-standard hardware and software solutions. In 2011, the company invented the mikroBUS™ development socket standard and the compact Click Boards that use the standard to dramatically cut development time. Now the company offers 1500+ Click Boards – ten times more than competitors - and the mikroBUS standard is included by leading microcontroller companies such as Microchip, Renesas and Toshiba on their development boards. MIKROE defined MCU development add-on boards and socket standard called SiBRAIN, and display board and display socket standard - DISCON. MikroElektronika also makes the world’s widest range of compilers and additionally provides development environments, development boards, smart displays and programmers and debuggers.
