injury.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XCXL, XCX Series integrates silicon micromachined sensing
technology, temper ature co mpensation, and ca li bration in an im pr oved
performance industry standard package. A unique stress isolating design
protects against torque induced. Additional stability and long term accuracy
improvements are gained through simplified compensation techniques,
which eliminate temperature dependent thermal compensation.
This series is available in a commercial (XCX-DNC) performance level. This
performance level provides the calibration accuracy of offset thermal
compensation, and linearity providing added flexibility to meet critical
performance budgets. The XCA and XCR Series provide amplified output as
well as integrated compensation.
