Abstract :
On the basis of the Programmable System-on-Chip (PSoC) and thin-film MEMS structure the Smart Pressure Sensor was developed by using newest method of definition of gas pressure. This sensor have such advantages before analogues as high accuracy of transformation, stability of characteristics, durability, presence of a set of standard digital and wireless interfaces. On the basis of one chip PSoC all necessary components of measuring system are executed. The wireless interface is provided by additional chip with 2.4-GHz Direct-Sequencing Spread Spectrum (DSSS) Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) radio transceiver (Cypress Semiconductor Corp.). If it accomplish on traditional microcircuits, the measuring system will be enough hard and costly.
