The BAP sensor has arrived!
The new SM11X1 series for barometric pressure is available as an analog or digital I2C/SPI sensor. These sensors in an SOIC8 package are suitable for automated SMD assembly. The SOIC pressure sensors are autonomous and do not require any additional circuitry. They cater for pressure ranges of between 150 and 1,800 mbar and have a supply voltage of 3.3 or 5 V.
IAQ participant with AMSYS
The IAQ-program at the University of Applied Sciences Kaiserslautern stands for Ingenieurwissenschaftliche Abschlussorientierte Qualifizierung, helping non-German engineers and academics to familiarize with German working philosophy in order to integrate the local labour market.
Since May 2020 PhD engineer Walid Sher Hussain, participant in the IAQ-program works with AMSYS in Mainz and speaks about his experience:
Panasonic DPH-100 – external pressure sensor for hard-to-access areas
When measuring pressure, it’s not only important to have the right pressure sensor to hand; sometimes there are also difficult problems to be overcome. One example is where the controller cannot be directly installed at the point of measurement. Here, a combination of DPC-100 (controller) and an external pressure sensor in the DPH-100 series provides an interesting miniaturized solution. The controller has an easy-to-operate display and the pressure sensors can measure relative pressures of between -1 and 10 bar.
SOIC pressure sensors with digital and analog output signal
These differential pressure sensors cover a pressure range from 20 mbar to 1 bar.
The OEM pressure sensor SM7491, for example, covers a pressure range of -0.20 to 0.20 mbar in its bidirectional design and is available with a digital I2C output signal and an analog 0.5 – 4.5 V voltage signal:
SM7X91: 20 mbar
SM6X91: 55 mbar
SM5X91: 170 mbar
SM1X91: 1 bar
Innovative sensor technology
The range of AMSYS pressure sensors extends from wafer level silicon sensors to simple SMD-mountable sensors and compensated dual-in-line sensors to packaged, ready-to-use pressure transmitters.
In addition to pressure sensors and inclinometers, AMSYS offers miniaturized OEM sensors for humidity and temperature measurement.
