【industry sourcing】MEMS atmospheric pressure sensor offers 0.1% accuracy|isweek.com

Mouser Electronics has the ZPA Series MEMS Pressure Sensor from Murata, a 2.3 × 2.6 mm micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) sensor that provides highly accurate pressure readings from 300 to 1,100 hPa, down to 0.016 Pa resolution.

The sensor employs capacitive sensing technology, which enables its ±1.0 hPa absolute accuracy across a wide temperature range (-10 to +65C; P=800 to 1,100 hPa). This capacitive sensing technology enables a low typical noise level of 1.1 PaRMS and current consumption of 6.3 μA at 0.16-second conversion time.

The ZPA Series MEMS Pressure Sensor features SPI and I2C communication interfaces, and is designed for applications that demand high accuracy and low current consumption, including medical equipment, elevator equipment, indoor navigation, and weather monitoring.
