Synchronous Communications
Typical synchronous communications
configuration (compatible with All
Sensors GA142 Series Digital Output
Sensors).
Typical Configurations
Asynchronous Communications
Typical asynchronous communications
configuration. The Mode pin is
interrogated at power up and if tied low,
will cause the sensor to enter asynchro-
nous communications mode. This mode
supports multiple sensors by addressable
commands. The Convert/BR pin then
serves to select one of two available
baud rates.

Performance Characteristics for 5 PSI-D-DO-PCB through 100 PSI-x-DO-PCB
Specification Notes
NOTE 1: UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, ALL PARAMETERS ARE MEASURED AT 5.0 VOLT SUPPLY, POSITIVE PRESSURE APPLIED TO PORT B.
NOTE 2: THE DIGITAL OUTPUT IS A 16 BIT SIGNED BINARY OUTPUT IN A TWO’S COMPLIMENT FORMAT. THE APPLIED PRESSURE IS COMPUTED USING THE PRESSURE
CONVERSION TABLE (BELOW). THE MODE COLUMN IDENTIFIES THE RESOLUTION OPERATING MODE OF THE DEVICE (A = STANDARD RESOLUTION, B = HIGH
RESOLUTION). FSO AND UNITS ARE SHOWN FOR EACH MODEL.
NOTE 3: SHIFT IS WITHIN THE FIRST HOUR OF EXCITATION APPLIED TO THE DEVICE.
NOTE 4: DIGITAL SPAN IS DEPENDENT ON THE RESOLUTION OPERATING MODE. REFER TO THE DIGITAL SPAN TABLE (BELOW) TO IDENTIFY THE DIGITAL SPAN OF THE
SPECIFIC MODEL. IN THE EVENT OF AN OVER-PRESSURE OR UNDER-PRESSURE CONDITION, THE DIGITAL OUTPUT WILL ONE COUNT HIGHER OR ONE COUNT LOWER
(RESPECTIVELY) TO THE LISTED DIGITAL SPAN TO INDICATE THE CONDITION.
NOTE 5: OVERALL ACCURACY INCLUDES THE COMBINED EFFECTS OF OFFSET AND SPAN SHIFTS OVER TEMPERATURE, LINEARITY, HYSTERESIS, AND OFFSET AND SPAN
CALIBRATION.
