SDX...A Series Precision compensated pressure sensors in DIP package FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION · 0...1 to 0...100 psi · DIP package · Temperature compensated · Calibrated zero and span · Small size · Low noise The SDX series sensors will provide a very cost effective solution for pressure applications that require small size plus performance. These calibrated and temperature compensated sensors give an accurate and stable output over a 0 to 50°C temperature range. SDX devices are available in standard commercial and prime grades to allow optimization of accuracy and cost in any given application. This series is intended for use with non-corrosive, non-ionic working fluids such as air, dry gases and the like. Devices are available to measure absolute and gage pressures from 1 up to 100 psi. The absolute devices have an internal vacuum reference and an output voltage proportional to absolute pressure. · High impedance for low power applications Scale: 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. APPLICATIONS has a pressure port(s). The PC board area used by each DIP is approximately 0.26 square inches. This extremely small size enables the use of multiple sensors in limited available space. The DIP provides excellent corrosion resistance and isolation to external package stress. The SDX devices feature an integrated circuit sensor element and laser trimmed thick film ceramic housed in a compact solvent resistant case. · Medical equipment · Computer peripherals The DIP mounts on a PC board like a standard IC with through-hole pins. The pins anchor the pressure sensor to the PC board and provide a more secure and stable unit than other types of packages. The package is a double wide (i.e., 0.600" lead spacing) dual-inline-package. This is the same familiar package used by IC manufacturers except it is only 0.470" long and · Pneumatic controls · HVAC EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT 1 cm ½ inch ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TOP VIEWS Pin 1 identified by chamfered corner Vs P2 Pin 1 identified by chamfered corner 1 out + out - GND GND out - out + +Vs 4 1 out + 1 P1 +Vs 4 GND P1 +Vs P2 out - 4 Vent hole SDX...G2-A + SDX...D4-A Note: June 2008 / 031 SDX...A2-A The polarity identicated is SDX...G2-A: P2 SDX...A2-A: P1 SDX...D4-A: P2 for pressure applied to (backward gage) (forward gage) (backward gage) 1/4 www.sensortechnics.com SDX...A Series Precision compensated pressure sensors in DIP package PRESSURE SENSOR CHARACTERISTICS (all devices) Maximum ratings Environmental specifications Supply voltage VS +20 VDC Maxium pressure on any port 150 psig Lead temperature (soldering 4 sec.) 250°C Temperature ranges Compensated Operating Storage Humidity limits 0 to 50°C -40 to +85°C -55 to +125°C 0 to 100% RH STANDARD PRESSURE RANGES Part number Operating pressure Proof11 pressure 0 - 1 psi 0 - 5 psi 0 - 15 psi 0 - 30 psi 0 - 100 psi 20 psi 20 psi 30 psi 60 psi 150 psi SDX01...

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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
