Different pin styles in pressure sensors documentation. Part 2

Hello community,

As continuation of the Different pin styles in pressure sensors post, I would like to add some useful information about the pin styles mentioned on the datasheets.

Some pressure sensors shows the following pin style configuration:

But…

What do V1, V2 and VEx actually mean?

How should I connect those pins?

Answer:

V1, V2 and VEX pins are used for factory trimming and it is recommended to leave these pins unconnected.

So, in case of unibody package, you will require only pin #1 (Vout), pin #2 (Ground), and pin #3 (Vs) as follow:

I hope you find useful this information. :smileyhappy:

Regards,

David
