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 ...

A failed or damaged pressure sensor can lead to unexpected downtime and costs. To reduce these risks, engineers must consider how the various challenges of an application will affect sensors.

The introduction of inverse feedback and control loops incorporating it was a brilliant advance in the history of engineering, but it was soon followed (probably on that very same day!) by the ...

The fuel tank pressure sensor is part of the fuel pump assembly and is mounted on top of the tank or inside the tank. It’s part of the evaporative emissions system (commonly referred to as “EVAP”) and ...

A high-resolution pressure sensor indicates pressure by varying its color -- a sensor that all of us can use with just our eyes. This sensor differs from commercially available pressure sensor films.

The world's smallest digital pressure sensor in high-volume production uses innovative MEMS technology to precisely measure altitude Geneva, September 05, 2012 - STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a ...

When it comes to the pressure of bike tires, a few psi either way can make a big difference in performance. The Outrider sensor was designed with that fact in mind, as it provides real-time pressure ...

A research team has co-developed a nanomaterial-based 'wireless multi-sensing platform' for the early detection of pressure injuries, which have a high prevalence among individuals with limited ...

Blood pressure tracking capabilities on Apple Watches have been a long-awaited feature, and the technology to make it happen appears to be in the works. The sensor-making company Apple partners with ...

Tire pressure sensors reflect a tire snag's development and alert the driver that the issue needs immediate attention. A vehicle runs smoothly on tires, and your driving safety will undoubtedly be at ...
