Most engineers understand the concept of pressure. It’s a force, often measured in pounds, on a specific area. It is commonly listed in pounds per square inch (psi). But there are a variety of ...

Today’s smartphones utilize a wide array of accelerometers, gyroscopes and various other sensors in their designs. Relatively unknown is the barometric pressure sensor, which measures air pressure.

The ultra-small size of this new digital air pressure sensor permits it to be mounted on or near the absorption pad and is connected to the amplifier by a highly flexible cable. Since there is no ...

The Aventics PE5 pressure sensor measures systems losses and will alert when the leakage rate exceeds a predetermined value. This enables excessive leaks to be diagnosed early and addressed, before ...

Infineon Technologies has introduced two new XENSIV barometric air pressure (BAP) sensors: the KP464 and KP466, both targeted at automotive applications. While the KP464 is primarily designed for ...
