The MAX1463 Sensor Compensation Algorithm
Abstract:A descriptive tutorial is presented for compensating pressure sensors using the MAX1463 Low-Power, Two-Channel
Sensor Signal Processor. A mathematical description of the algorithm is given with an example of a pressure sensor
compensation using real data. The low level transducer signal is amplified and temperature compensated to form a complete high
signal level sensor.
The MAX1463 is a fully digital, high-performance signal conditioner with multi-channel inputs. It has analog and digital outputs and
supports 4-20mA output applicatio……
