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 ...

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 ...

August 2, 2007 Alps Electric has completed development of the industry’s smallest (4.8mm long x 4.8mm wide x 1.8 mm high) capacitance type pressure sensor to detect absolute pressure. The sensor can ...

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 ...

Packing two independent sensors in a single package, the Basic Dual Sensor (BDS) series is allegedly the market’s first pressure sensor capable of measuring both an absolute and differential pressure ...

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 ...

Pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area. Pressure can be measured by a pressure gauge, but it is important to know the type of pressure the gauge is reading. This article will cover the ...

A service update has been issued for certain 2021 model-year GM trucks and SUVs over an issue related to the vehicles’ engine manifold pressure sensor. The problem: affected GM trucks and SUVs may ...
