Integrated Pressure Transducer
IPT
Honeywell’s Integrated Pressure Transducer (IPT) provides high accuracy pressure data in an industry standard SPI
digital format. The core of the IPT is a proven Honeywell silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor with both pressure and
temperature sensitive elements. The IPT is small and lightweight and can be easily integrated by the user into a wide
variety of applications that require high performance in a small package. Applying the coefficients stored in the on-board
EEPROM to the normalized IPT pressure and temperature output yields highly accurate and stable pressure readings
over the -40 to 85°C compensated temperature range.

(1) Total Error is the sum of worst case linearity, repeatability, hysteresis, thermal effects, and calibration errors
over the operating temperature range. Accuracy is only achieved after applying the correction coefficients and
algorithm as shown in section 3.2. of Product Specification (FS = Full Scale). For total error calculations of
differential units, “Full Scale” is the pressure difference between the minimum and maximum pressures. For
example, full scale for a 1 psid PPT is 2 psi (-1 to +1 psi). Pressure range 1psi gauge has total error of ±0.20%
FS. (2) After applying the correction coefficients stored in EEPROM, the resultant pressure reading is
expressed in PSI (pounds per square inch). (3) Not including mounting hardware. (4) Demonstration kit includes
RS-232 Cable, Demo Board, AC adapter, MS Windows Software, and User’s Manual.
