Kit Provides Sensors and Sensor Fusion Development Tools
Called a development ecosystem with sensor fusion technology, Texas Instruments’ Sensor Hub BoosterPack is a plug-in daughter card for its ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller (MCU). TivaWare software shipped with board enables measurement of pressure, humidity, ambient and infrared (IR) light along with temperature and motion (including acceleration, orientation and compass). Sensors on the board include: • […]
Differential Pressure Sensors for Flow Measurement in Bypass Configuration
The Swiss sensor manufacturer Sensirion recently added new differential pressure sensors to its proven SDP600 series. The SDP601 and SDP611 sensors are differential pressure sensors specifically calibrated for measuring mass flow in a bypass configuration. In a bypass configuration, an orifice or a linear flow restrictor is used to generate a differential pressure in a […]
World’s Smallest Humidity and Temperature Sensor
The tiny SHTC1 humidity and temperature sensor is specifically designed for mobile devices where size is a critical factor. Sensirion has rigorously followed the maxim “smaller is better” and developed the world’s smallest sensor in its class, measuring a mere 2 x 2 x 0.8 mm. The sensor is based on the proven CMOSens® Technology, […]
Filter Protects Small Digital Humidity Sensor
It takes a variety of components to make a sensor appropriate for targeted applications and environments. To protect Sensirion’sSHT2x humidity and temperature sensor from water, dust, dirt and various contaminants, the SF2 filter cap is such a component. Made of PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) the filter cap has an integrated filter membrane. With a filtration efficiency […]
Sensirion SDP600 Differential Pressure Sensors Now Include Failsafe Versions
Already used successfully in medical and HVAC applications, the newest Sensirion differential pressure sensor models, SDP620, SDP621, SDP630 and SDP631, allow verification of the measured values. The failsafe sensors can be configured to provide special test patterns for error checking by an external microprocessor. With the right test pattern configurations, it is possible to measure […]
