NPH-8-030GH

NPH-8-030GH is an integrated circuit silicon sensor chip housed in a standard TO-8 electrical package that is printed circuit board mountable. The latest techniques in micromachining have been used to ion-implant piezoresistive strain gauges into a wheatstone bridge configuration that is integrally formed on a micromachined silicon diaphragm. As with all NovaSensor silicon sensors, the NPH Series employs SenStable® processing technology, providing excellent output stability. Constant current excitation to the sensor produces a voltage output that is linearly proportional to the input pressure. The user can provide standard signal conditioning circuitry to amplify the 100mV output signal. Applications include process control, P-to-I converters, pneumatic control systems, HVAC controls, biomedical: Infusion pumps, sphygmomanometers, respirators, aerospace: Altimeters, barometers, cabin pressure sensors, computer peripherals.
