Distinguishing between pressure sensors can be challenging. The widespread use of synonymous terminologies like transducer, sensor, and transmitter only compounds the issue and makes pressure sensor ...

Tokyo, Japan — Alps Electric has developed a capacitance-type pressure sensor in a 4.8 x 4.8 x 1.8-mm footprint to detect absolute pressure. Key applications for the HSPC series sensors include ...

The MLX90808 is a fully integrated absolute pressure sensor realized with standard CMOS technology in combination with MEMS bulk micromachining. The MLX90807 and MLX90808 are fully integrated relative ...

STMicroelectronics has introduced a waterproof absolute pressure sensor “with a declared 10 year longevity program”, it said. Using mems technology and aimed at the industrial market, ILPS28QSW sensor ...

Most engineers understand the concept of pressure. It’s a force, often measured in pounds, on a specific area. It is commonly listed in pounds per square inch (psi). But there are a variety of ...

Highly accurate pressure sensors with long-term stability are necessary for fuel efficiency and reduction of harmful emissions. Increasingly demanding requirements of piezoresistive sensors include ...

Piezoresistive (diaphragm-based) differential pressure sensors based on silicon comprise a thin silicon diaphragm in which resistors (connected together in a Wheatstone bridge) are lodged. If there is ...
