MLX90830: Melexis revolutionizes MEMS pressure sensors

Meet MLX90830, Melexis‘ new pressure sensor and get access to the new patented Triphibian technology!

MLX90830: a brilliant new pressure sensor

This sensor is the first product to feature the Melexis new patented Triphibian™  technology. This unprecedented miniaturized MEMS pressure sensor handles measurement of gas and liquid media from 2 to 70 bar in a robust way. The factory calibrated device measures the absolute pressure and delivers a proportional analog output signal. The MLX90830 makes the module cost-effective by simplifying the system integration into the latest electric vehicles (EVs) thermal management systems.
 
To conclude, there will be only 2 variants (10 or 35 bar) available. The 2-bar version should not be used until further notice.
