I wrote my C code in linux x86 machine. The pressure value vas initially way off so I had to guess what type of variables I use and where to cast them. In the end I got a pressure value that seems to be correct (I have no way to know for sure except the local weather station which is pretty close). I can’t paste the code here as it’s too long.

I’ve just got this to work with the Bus Pirate. Great sensor. One note though about the product description… The absolute accuracy is +/- 1 hPa, not 0.03 hPa. Resolution is down to 0.03 hPa.
Converting the coefficients was the hardest job since the datasheet nor the application note give the conversion formula. It’s only in C-code. And since I’m not that good at C it took a little time to understand how some of the coeffs are negative.
If you are deciding between this and MPL115A2I2C take this. I have both and MPL115A’s coeffs are way harder to convert (fixed point numbers). -
This thing is great! I’ve been debugging an I2C pressure sensor for days and with this I finally got it to work.

I’d like the I2C version breakout board too. Any news on that?
No public wish lists :(
