Figure 11. Error Compensation
Figure 11a. Raw Sensor Output
(measured between VPB and VBN)
Figure 11b. Conditioned Sensor
Output
Figures 11a and 11b above illustrate the performance
of an unconditioned sensor output and a conditioned
sensor
temperature. It can be seen that Figure 11a has a
range of only 170 mV (maximum range with a 5V
supply) and has a non-linear response over a 0-100
psi range. The sensitivity of the unconditioned output
will also drift over temperature, as illustrated by the
three slopes. The MLX90314 corrects these errors
and amplifies the output to a more usable voltage
range as shown in Figure 11b.
