AMS 6916 analog miniature pressure sensor
AMS 6916 series for various pressure types
AMS 6916 pressure sensors are a series of high-precision OEM sensors* with analog output, multiple pressure ranges from 0-5 mbar to 0-1200 mbar and customizable pressure ports.
AMS 6916 are calibrated and compensated for across a wide temperature range of -25 to +85°C. These pressure sensors come as a dual in-line package (DIP) for assembly on printed circuit boards (PCBs) 13 x 10 mm² and are fully operational without the need for any additional components. The electrical connection is made via the DIP solder pins; pressure is connected via two vertical metal tubes.
The pressure sensors of this series are one-sided media resistant by underside pressurization* and have a ratiometric voltage output of 0.5 … 4.5 V. They are available in the following versions.
Types of pressure and ranges for the AMS 6916
AMS 6916, for ultra low pressure, differential or bidirectional differential: 0 – 5; 0 – 10 mbar or ±5; ±10 mbar
AMS 6916, for low pressure, differential, relative or bidirectional differential: 0 – 20; 0 – 50; 0 – 100 mbar or ±20; ±50 mbar
AMS 6916, for standard pressure, differential, relative or bidirectional differential: 0 – 0.2; 0 – 0.35; 0 – 1 bar; ±0.2; ±0.35; ±1 bar
AMS 6916, for absolute / barometric pressure: 0 – 0.5; 0 – 1.0; 0.7 – 1.2 bar
USB starter kit AMS 6916: Accessories for easy commissioning via USB interface of a PC, for programming an individual I2C bus address and for graphic display on the PC.
Note: The AMS 6916 can be calibrated customer-specifically. Also special designs, e.g. other pressure connections are possible on request. Another variant of this OEM sensor family is the AMS 6915 with digital I2C output.
