Need Someone for a Project: Cypress PSoc6 BLE kit +  Honeywell Pressure Sensor Shield

rscasny
rscasny over 7 years ago

I was contacted by a supplier who is interested in giving hardware for free to someone who could do a project for them featuring  Cypress's PSoc6 BLE kit +  Honeywell Pressure Sensor Shield.

 

They would like the person to do the following:

 

Interface the pressure sensors of the Honeywell Sensor Shield with the PSoC 6 analog/digital peripherals and then transmit data via BLE or showcasing it on the E-ink display of the PSoC 6 BLE Kit. The project should have some kind of medical application. For example, measuring pressure in some kind of health/medical application.

 

Just to refresh your mind, here are the parts involved:

Click here for more information on this Honeywell Sensor Shield. I have not roadtested this product.

 

I would like to do this sometime in October. I'd like to get it accomplished in a month--the shorter time period is why I am not offering it as a roadtest.

 

If you are interested, feel free to comment below.

 

thanks.

    To the 5 project builders.....

     

    jomoenginer

    balearicdynamics

    BigG

    dougw

    geralds

     

    I wanted to post an update to this.

     

    First off: anyone who needs a PSoC 6 Pioneer kit, they are on their way to me. I got the tracking number so I should get them shortly. In addition, I have ordered 5 Honeywell Sensor Shields (SEK002) for all of you. Before looking at the datasheet, I casually assumed that the sensors were placed on the shield, as they are on other shields/expansion boards. After looking at the datasheet, I assumed incorrectly. I believe Enrico mentioned that too. So, I need to get some information regarding the sensors, etc. This is what is happening:

     

    I will order everyone a micropressure sensor (MRP) series. But you have to tell me which one. So go here, and select the one that you need. If you don't need one, tell me that too:

    https://uk.farnell.com/w/c/sensors-transducers/sensors/pressure-sensors-transducers/pressure-transducers?product-range=m…

     

    ABP Series

    Tell me which one you need from the ABP series: https://uk.farnell.com/search?st=honeywell%20abp

     

    Humidicon Series

    Tell me which one you need from this series: https://uk.farnell.com/search?st=honeywell%20humidicon

     

    I'm not including the particle count sensors because I don't expect they are need for the medical application.

     

     

    So look over these links and tell me which ones you need and I'll order them.

    The micropressure sensor (MRP) series device is a surface mount part that does have a location on the Shield for one at S4 on the board if it is soldered to the Sensor Shield.  I suppose one could try to run wires between the Sensor shield and the MRP if one was careful.  

     

    I'll have to look over these and send you a message with my selection and a description of what I plan to do.

    Good point. The supplier told me that you connect the micropressure sensor with wires /cable like this:

    I'll have to get that for you.

    Hi Randall rscasny ,

     

    Now, for my project looks the best:

    MPRLS0025PA00001A (Farnell No: 2811406)

     

    also for tests, learning, selecting if this devices would be better to the project:

    ABPDRRT005PG2A5 (Farnell No: 2496756);

     

    ABPLANT015PD2A5 (Farnell No: 2773682); leadless, This sensor would also be used in the "smart home", in which area I mainly work.

    http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/2581158.pdf?_ga=2.121799881.316146039.1538161893-907054817.1537274526

    The test pcb as you mentioned (it is described in the datasheet), I didn't find on the Farnell webshop.

    If you can get one, it would ask as well to get one test pcb for this sensor (2773682).

     

    Humidicon sensor:

    HIH8120-021-001 (Farnell No: 2350463) SIL4, I2C, w/o filter, w/o digital outputs

     

    HIH8131-021-001 (Farnell No: ?; I didn't find the number) - SOIC8, I2C, w filter, with digital outputs

    http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1927621.pdf?_ga=2.75659989.1337994729.1538399547-907054817.1537274526

    This device would be nice because it also has digital outputs for e.g. switched devices;

    it is not yet planned directly to this project, but to a very small temperature controlled switch.

    Here, I will use it together with a 6 pin µController from Microchip.

    You gave me some great ideas with this great opportunity in the project. Thank you.

     

    And as above mentioned, I need also the Cypress's PSoc6 BLE kit +  Honeywell Pressure Sensor Shield.

     

    Thank you very much.

    Best Regards

    Gerald

    Yeah, that PBC is shown in the following doc:

    https://sensing.honeywell.com/honeywell-sensing-sensor-evaluation-kit-sek002-data-sheet-32333738-a-en.pdf

     

    The trick still is to get the part mounted on the PCB or the Shield. I'm thinking some solder mask and a Toaster Oven might work.

     

    I wonder if there is a difference between the Leadless SMT device and the DIP formatted Pressure Sensor devices.
