SM5551/SM5552
 
• LOW PRESSURE TRANSDUCER FULLY TEMPERATURE
  COMPENSATED AND CALIBRATED
 

DESCRIPTION
Pressure sensor models SM5551 and SM5552 are fully temperature-compensated and calibrated. Each sensor is housed in a rugged plastic enclosure.
Silicon Microstructures uses a unique silicon sensor chip structure to optimize lowpressure performance and to provide a true low-pressure sensor – not merely a derated high-pressure part. The result is a device that provides the performance necessary for low-pressure applications. Both constant current (model SM5551) and constant voltage (model SM5552) are available. Factory calibration provides either a gain-set resistor (model SM5551) or a fixed 25mV full-scale output (model SM5552). By eliminating the need for customer gain adjustments, these parts are truly interchangeable and offer remarkable assembly-cost savings for a wide variety of OEM industrial, medical, and consumer
 
products.
Rugged pins, sealed into the package to prevent breakage, allow simple placement in PC boards using standard 0.1 inch center-to center pin spacing. Full high-temperature plastic enclosure prevents substrate drift and eases handling. Custom pressure ranges available in high volume applications.
