GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AMS 5612 is a series of unamplified, laser trimmed

pressure sensors with differential, ratiometric mV

output signal. They are designed for constant

voltage excitation with a supply voltage up to 20 V.

All AMS 5612 are calibrated and temperature

compensated within a range of 0 .. 60 °C.

AMS 5612 comes as a dual in-line package (DIP)

for assembly on printed circuit boards (PCBs). The

electrical connection is made via the DIP solder

pins; pressure is connected via vertical metal

tubes.

The AMS 5612 series uses micromachined high

quality piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor chips

in a ceramic package. The calibration of offset and

span as well as temperature compensation is done

individually during the manufacturing process by

laser trimming of thick film resistors. The fully

analog construction of this series enables

precision, high speed measurements combined

with an excellent long-term stability.
