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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Munich—Epson Toyocom Corp. has developed an extremely small absolute pressure sensor dubbed the XP-6000CA, which employs a QMEMS pressure-sensing structure that allows the sensor to squeeze into a ...

There are many ways to measure pressure, as well as different types of pressure. Here’s a look at some of the most common. Most engineers understand the concept of pressure. It’s a force, often ...

Würth Elektronik has created a 2.0 x 2.0 x 0.8mm MEMS absolute pressure sensor for use across 26 and 126kPa. “The WSEN-PADS absolute pressure sensor offers the possibility of preparing the measured ...

The manifold absolute pressure sensor reads the amount of pressure or vacuum (also called “engine load”) in the intake manifold, where outside air is divvied up in proper amounts and distributed to ...
