This article explains how to use the WF282A MEMS absolute pressure sensor in a wearable device to measure both altitude and diving depth. It covers the sensor’s advantages, installation tips, testing procedures, and mode-switching algorithms, providing practical guidance for product development.
Agricultural weather stations rely on accurate pressure data, but barometric sensors often face harsh outdoor conditions (rain, dust, frost, agrochemicals). Waterproof digital on-board pressure sensors can improve system reliability in such environments.
When replacing old pressure and temperature sensors, engineers must consider multiple factors. This article focuses on real-world scenarios and customer concerns to highlight key points for making informed decisions. Topics include understanding legacy system requirements, comparing analog vs digital sensor options, installation and soldering considerations, pre-production testing, and maintenance strategies to ensure long-term system stability.
High-precision MEMS negative pressure sensors convert tiny diaphragm movements into electrical signals using capacitive or strain-gauge methods. With resolutions as low as 10 Pa and nonlinearity under 0.01% FS, they ensure stable, high-speed performance across a 0–50 kPa range. This article covers their structure, performance, installation, testing, and real-world use, offering engineers a reliable solution for accurate negative-pressure data capture.

This project presents a high‑precision, low‑cost airflow static pressure measurement setup using the WF280A pressure sensor in combination with a DC motor fan. By designing a sidewall static port and attaching a short tube, the WF280A sensor—combined with smart signal processing like 16× oversampling, IIR filtering, and moving average—delivers ±3 Pa accuracy in real-time pressure readings.
breathing controller sensor is a specialized transducer designed to monitor and regulate air pressure in respiratory support systems such as CPAP machines. These sensors operate within a pressure range of 0–5.8 psi (40 kPa) and are engineered to detect minute fluctuations in airway pressure, ensuring stable airflow delivery to patients.
The air pressure sensor is a measurement module IC used to detect, monitor, read and display the pressure change and temperature of a certain detected air pressure value and altitude. At present, air pressure sensors are widely used in various products using MEMS technology.
