How Melexis‘ Pressure Sensors Contribute to CO2 Emission Reduction

技术问答

When you watch the evolution of the polar ice over the last 30 years - as clearly visualized by NASA -, it is clear that scientific evidence for global warming is unequivocal. To fight global warming, one of the necessary measures is to reduce CO2 emissions. Many of the MELEXIS pressure sensors have been developed to contribute to that goal. The MLX90821, for instance, enables deploying fuel vapor systems in hybrid vehicles.

Even though the automotive industry plays an important role in addressing global warming, other industries certainly have their impact too. Studies state that the ecological footprint of buildings - both residential and commercial - is similar to that of the automotive industry. It is key to have good house thermal insulation and an effective HVAC system in buildings and private homes. People who live near busy harbors can probably confirm that large cargos and cruise ships in the marine industry contribute to global warming too.

Let's have a look at a specific Melexis pressure-sensing solution for oil-filled applications across different industries.

With Melexis’ latest new absolute mid-pressure sensor solution, the MLX90820, an ideal fit is foreseen for oil-filled module designs. The product brings monolithic integration advantages compared to previous generations of discrete solutions like the MLX90815 and the MLX90816 sensing elements that could be used together with a signal conditioning IC such as MLX90328. Together with the MLX90819 relative mid-pressure sensor, the MLX90820 completes our portfolio of mid-pressure sensor bare die solutions.

The MLX90819 is the automotive counterpart of the MLX90820 and is an ideal solution for automotive mid-pressure sensors, used as a backside exposed device. (see below images)

Backside exposed device - MLX90819

HVAC systems in passenger vehicles are only one example of an application for such a device where the MEMS technology can bring miniaturization, performance, and robustness advantages over the more classic ceramic-based sensing element. (see below image)

Generic MID Pressure sensor approach - Melexis MEMS MID Pressure sensor approach

When larger systems, such as HVAC systems in buildings and industrial processes or engines in large boats, are considered, it becomes key to prevent any risk of leakage from inside the pressure sensor module that can potentially occur when sealing the ceramic sensor with an internal O-ring or when using die-attach-material to glue the backside exposed MEMS directly in the module housing. Intrinsic hermeticity is one of the key advantages of the so-called “oil-filled” pressure sensor solution. (see below image)

The pressure sensor is mounted inside a hermetic module and a metallic membrane welded to the module is in contact with the application media, making any leakage inside the housing impossible. Dielectric oil inside the housing transmits the pressure from the bending of the metallic membrane to the MEMS sensor. Oil-filled pressure sensors are not new in the industry and are already extensively used. Yet they bring challenges to MEMS devices as the dielectric oil gets charged and disturbs the pressure sensor output. Whereas discrete solutions robust to oil charging, like the MLX90815 and MLX90816, already exist, the MLX90820 is the first fully monolithic solution to offer superior robustness when used in oil-filled pressure sensor module designs. Thanks to the monolithic integration, the assembly steps at customers and the supply chain can be simplified, which helps to expand the oil-filled pressure sensor market and helps markets such as HVAC in buildings and the marine sector reduce their footprint in buildings global warming.

【选型】如何正确区分压力传感器和压力变送器

在使用压力传感器的时候，很多人也听说过压力变送器，这两者之间容易搞混，常常让人比较困惑它们有什么区别和联系。压力传感器压力传感器通常指非标准mV级信号输出的元件，由于信号的非标准性，用户使用时需要进行压力标定和设计专门的信号处理电路。而且由于信号微弱，不适合远距离传输。世强代理的SMI、TE、Melexis均推出了压力传感器产品。
