Section 23.1 LPS Setup

When you open the packaging of this breakout board you’ll notice that the header pins are missing. First you’ll need to cut a row of 8 header pins and solder the header pins to the sensor. If you’re taking my class I can solder this for you or teach everyone about soldering during a lecture session of class. If you are taking this class elsewhere you have two options: try and find someone who can solder this real quick (only takes about 5 minutes) or buy your own soldering iron and try to solder yourself. Once the device is soldered you can "plug" it into a breadboard. The wiring for this system requires 4 wires. The figure below shows the pressure sensor connected to a Feather M4 (Courtesy of Bryan Siepert)[32]. Notice that the SDA/SCL pins on the LPS22 are listed SDI/SCK respectively.
