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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
