Basic Board Mount Pressure Sensors
ABP Series—High Accuracy, Compensated/Amplified
60 mbar to 10 bar | 6 kPa to 1 MPa | 1 psi to 150 psi
Digital or Analog Output, Liquid Media Capable
DESCRIPTION
The ABP Series are piezoresistive silicon pressure sensors
offering a ratiometric analog or digital output for reading
pressure over the specified full scale pressure span and
temperature range. They are calibrated and temperature
compensated for sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature
effects and accuracy errors (which include non-linearity,
repeatability and hysteresis) using an on-board Application
Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Calibrated output
values for pressure are updated at approximately 1 kHz for
analog and 2 kHz for digital. All products are designed and
manufactured according to ISO 9001 standards.
• Dry gases option: The input port is limited to non-corrosive,
non-ionic media (e.g., dry air, gases) and should not be
exposed to condensation. The gases are limited to media
compatible with high temperature polyamide, silicone,
alumina ceramic, silicon, gold, and glass.
• Liquid media option: Includes an additional silicone-based
gel coating to protect the electronics under port P1, which
enables use with non-corrosive liquids (e.g. water and
saline) and in applications where condensation can occur.
Since port P2 is designed for use with non-corrosive liquids,
this option is often suitable for wet-wet differential sensing.
VALUE TO CUSTOMERS
• Simplifies design-in: Small size saves room on the PC board
(PCB), or simplifies design in smaller and lower power
devices. Meets Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 requirements,
which allows for unlimited shelf life when stored at
<30 ºC/85 %RH and, under most storage conditions, allows
for PCB soldering without any material concern about solder
joint quality due to aging of the sensor terminals, which
minimizes the concern about aging of the terminals prior
PCB assembly. Pressure choices allow engineers to select
range required for their application. Leadless SMT, SMT, and
DIP package options.
• Cost-effective: Small size helps engineers reduce design
and manufacturing costs while maintaining enhanced
performance and reliability of the systems they design.
• Accurate: Total Error Band (TEB) and wide pressure range
enable engineers to optimize system performance by
improving resolution and system accuracy. Optional internal
diagnostics validate that the sensor readings are correct.
• Flexible: Supply voltage range, variety of pressure units,
types, and ranges, output options, and wide operating
temperature range simplify use in the application.
• Versatile: Wet-media compatibility, sleep mode, and
temperature output options make the sensor a versatile
choice for Internet of Things applications.
• Honeywell Brand: Utilize proprietary Honeywell technology,
and are protected by multiple global patents.
