Hello
There is a little scilab script (
paparazzi4/trunk/hw/booz/baro_amp.sce ) which you can use to play with
the values of the resistors.
The values on the schematics, ie
R10 = 27e3;
R5 = 390;
R6 = 12e3;
R20 = 560;
R21 = 680;
gives you an altitude range of -500m:930m ( with ground pressure at
1013 ) which is a bit silly
You might want to lower R20, for example
R10 = 27e3;
R5 = 390;
R6 = 12e3;
R20 = 220;
R21 = 680;
gives you an altitude range of -380m to 1530m which is a bit better (
you want the negative value if you want to be able to fly at sea level
on a high pressure day )
There is a slightly better script in
paparazzi4/trunk/hw/lisa/pressure.sce which takes sea level pressure
into account ( the one in booz doesn't, feel free to improve it )
Regards
Poine
