DATASHEET SP100 PRESSURE SENSOR SERIES SP100-7(T), SP100-7A(T), SP100-12A SP100 Series Compensated Pressure Sensors The SP100 pressure sensors are calibrated and digitally compensated silicon piezoresistive sensors with SPI interface. In addition to pressure, the sensors provide acceleration (A version sensors), temperature and supply voltage measurements. Each sensor has a unique electronic sensor ID, and has a built in self diagnosis system. The SP100 series of sensors can easily be used in a broad range of applications and interfaces directly to a micro controller without the need of any additional components. SP100 series has excellent media compatibility due to a patented bulk micromachined triple stack sensor die design, utilizing buried piezoresistive elements and backside media access to pressure diaphragm. With this design the internal connectors and piezoresistive elements of the pressure bridge are isolated from the measurement media. The isolation is of great advantage in terms of sensor stability and reliability over a very long lifetime. The SP100 pressure sensor design has been proven in harsh environment applications during a period of more than 10 years, making these sensors ideal choices for demanding applications where simple solutions are needed to quickly implement reliable and accurate pressure measurements. SP100-7 and SP100-12 sensors belong to the medium pressure range of SP100 sensors.
