Winter 2019, new released SA5650 blood pressure sensorThe SA5650 is a fully piezo resistivesilicon pressure sensor for use in medical applications such as filtration,chromatography or invasive blood pressure monitoring. The sensor is designed tobe used with automated assembly equipment and can be dropped directly into acustomer's pressure housing. The sensor is designed to meet the requirements asdescribed in the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation(AAMI) specification BP22 for medical application like Blood PressureTransducers. The pressure sensor consists of apressure sensing element mounted on a PCBboard. SMT resistors on the PCB are laser trimmed or ASIC adjacent to thesensing element for compensation and calibration. A polycarbonate orpolysulfone plastic cap is attached to the PCB substrate to provide an easymethod of attachment to the customer’s assembly and protection for the sensingelement. A dielectric gel is placed over the sensor to provide electrical andfluid isolation. The products are shipped on a tape and reel.Performancecharacteristics and packaging can be easily tailored on a special order basisto meet the requirements of specific customers. |
