AMS 5915 – digital pressure sensor 2,5 mbar – 16 bar

AMS 5915 pressure sensor with digital output

AMS 5915 differential pressure sensor without tubes for pressure connection

Block diagram AMS 5915

AMS 5915 pressure sensors are a series of high-precision OEM sensors* with a digital I²C-interface with multiple pressure ranges from 0-2,5 mbar to 0-16 bar and customizable pressure ports.

AMS 5915 are calibrated and compensated for across a wide temperature range of -25 to +85°C. These pressure sensors come as a dual in-line package (DIP) for assembly on printed circuit boards (PCBs) 15 x 15 mm² and are fully operational without the need for any additional components. The electrical connection is made via the DIP solder pins; pressure is connected via two vertical metal tubes.
The AMS 5915 combine a micromachined, high quality piezoresistive measuring cell with a modern, digital signal conditioning mixed-signal CMOS-ASIC on a ceramic substrate.
