SDX Series Low cost compensated pressure sensors in DIP package FEATURES · · · 0...1 to 0...100 psi Low cost DIP package Temperature compensation Calibrated zero and span Small size Low noise High impedance for low power applications GENERAL DESCRIPTION The SDX series sensors will provide a very cost effective solution for pressure applications that require small size plus performance. These internally calibrated and temperature compensated sensors give an accurate and stable output over a 0 to 50°C temperature range. This series is intended for use with non-corrosive, non-ionic working fluids such as air and dry gases. Devices are available to measure absolute, differential and gage pressures from 1 psi (SDX01) up to 100 psi (SDX100). The absolute (A) devices have an internal vacuum reference and an output voltage proportional to absolute pressure. The output of the bridge is ratiometric to the supply voltage and operation from any D.C. supply voltage up to +20 V is acceptable. The SDX devices feature an integrated circuit sensor element and laser trimmed thick film ceramic housed in a compact solvent resistant case. This package provides excellent corrosion resistance and isolation to external package stresses. The DIP package · · · · Scale: 1 cm ½ inch APPLICATIONS · · · · Medical equipment Computer peripherals Pneumatic controls HVAC also provides convenient mounting and pressure ports for ease of use with standard plastic tubing for pressure connection. All SDX devices are calibrated for span to within 3.5 % and provide an offset (zero pressure output) of ±1 mV max. These parts were designed for low cost applications where the user can typically provide fine-adjustment of zero and span in external circuitry.

The gage devices will give an increasing positive going output when increasing pressure is applied to the pressure port. The absolute device will give a decreasing output when increasing pressure is applied to the port. The devices are ratiometric to the supply voltage and changes in the supply voltage will cause proportional changes in the offset voltage and full-scale span. USER CALIBRATION The SDX devices are fully calibrated for offset and span and should therefore require little user adjustment in most applications. For more precise span and offset adjustments, contact the factory. VACUUM REFERENCE (absolute devices) Absolute sensors have a hermetically sealed vacuum reference chamber. The offset voltage on these units is therefore measured at vacuum, 0 psia. Since all pressure is measured relative to a vacuum reference, all changes in barometric pressure or changes in altitude will cause changes in the device output. PNEUMATIC INTERFACE The DIP also provides convenient mounting and pressure ports for ease of use with standard 1/16" ID, 1/8" OD, 1/32" wall, flexible plastic tubing for pressure connection. The small tubing has several advantages over larger tubing commonly used with pressure sensors: 1) The tubing can be formed in a much smaller radius without kinking. 2) The tubing is easier to handle. 3) The tubing is available in a variety of colors such as clear, white, yellow, blue, green, etc. to enable color coding of pneumatic circuits with multiple pressure sensors in the same way that wiring harnesses are color coded in electrical circuits. This greatly simplifies troubleshooting. 4) Less stress is placed on the pressure sensor package resulting in less potential for offset shift. 5) Less physical space is required for the small tubing. 6) The lower volume of air in the small tubing results in faster pressure sensor response. MEDIA COMPATIBILITY SDX devices are compatible with most non-corrosive gases. Because the circuitry is coated with a protective silicon gel, many otherwise corrosive environments can be compatible with the sensors. Fluids must generally be compatible with silicon gel, plastic, RTV, silicon, and glass for use with the gage devices (only). For questions concerning media compatibility, contact the factory. MECHANICAL AND MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS The DIP housing is designed for convenient pressure connection and easy PC board mounting. For pressure attachment tygon and silicon tubing is recommended. APPLICATION INFORMATION The application information for the SCX series is also applicable to the SDX series.
