FEATURES AND BENEFITS ( =competitive differentiator) (continued) Industry-leading flexibility: Extremely low power consumption (operating supply voltage
as low as 1.8 Vdc): Modular, flexible design with numerous package
styles, pressure ports, and options simplify Reduces power consumption integration into the device manufacturer’s application Provides extended battery life
Promotes energy efficiency Single side wet media option allows the end
customer to use one port of the sensor with Low operating voltage condensing humidity or directly with non-corrosive Sensitive: Meets specified pressure level requirements, liquid media providing enhanced sensitivity and accuracy over the range
Small size: Miniature 10 mm x 10 mm [0.39 in x Virtually insensitive to mounting orientation, allowing for
0.39 in] package is very small when compared to most flexibility of use within the application board mount pressure sensors
Ratiometric analog output
Occupies less area on the PCB
Infinite resolution
Typically allows for easy placement on crowded
Fast response time
PCBs or in small devices
RoHS compliant Repeatability: Provides excellent repeatability, high
Absolute, differential and gage types accuracy and reliability under many demanding
Pressure ranges from 1 psi to 150 psi (60 mbar to 10 bar) conditions
Also available in the HSC Series and the SSC Series which
are fully compensated and calibrated with amplified analog or
2
digital IC or SPI outputs
