NOTES
1) Under the assumption of one conversion every second. Conversion means either a pressure or a
temperature measurement started by a command to the serial interface of MS5540B.
2) During conversion the sensor will be switched on and off in order to reduce power consumption; the total on
time within a conversion is about 2 ms.
3) This value can be reduced by switching off MCLK while MS5540B is in standby mode.
4) It is strongly recommended that a crystal oscillator be used because the device is sensitive to clock jitter. A
square-wave form of the clock signal is a must.
