DESCRIPTION
The Model 43 is a temperature compensated, piezoresistive
silicon pressure sensor packaged in TO-8 configurations. It
provi des excellent performance and long-term stability.
Gage and absolute pressure ranges from 0-2 PSI to 0-250
PSI are av a il able . In t eg r al te m p er at u re c o m p ensati o n is
provided over a ra ng e of 0-50°C using laser-trimmed resis tor s.
An additional las er-trimmed resist or is included to normal iz e
pressure sensitivity variations by programming the gain of an
ex te rn a l d iff e ren t ial am plifie r. This pro v id e s sensit i v it y
inte rchangeabili ty of ±1%.
Please refer to the low pressure section for information on
products with operating pressures less than 0-2 PSI. An
uncompensated sensor (Model 40) is also availa ble. F or sensors
in a dual-in-li ne package pleas e refer to the Models 1210 and
1220. Please contact the factor y for additional information.

Notes
1. Best Fit Straight Line. For 2 psi output span is 30-60 mV and TC zero
temperature error is ±1.25%.
2. Temperature range 0-50°C in reference to 25°C.
3. Guarantees input/output ratiometricity.
4. For a zero-to-full scale pressure step change.
5. 10 Hz to 1 kHz.
6. Between case and sensing element.
7. 3X not to exceed 500 psi on ranges: 0-10 psi to 0-250 psi; 20 psi for 2
psi and 5 psi versions.
8. For Top Entry versions, wetted materials are silicon, aluminum, gold,
RTV, glass, and nickel. For Bottom Entry versions, wetted materials are
silicon, RTV, gold, and glass.
