Introduction:
This version of the Sensor Products Device Data Hand-
book is organized to provide easy reference to sensor device
information. We have reorganized the book based upon your
recommendations with our goal to make designing in pres-
sure, acceleration and safety and alarm ICs easy, and if you
do have a question, you will have access to the technical
support you need.
The handbook is organized by product line, acceleration,
pressure and safety and alarm ICs. Once in a section, you
will find a glossary of terms, a list of frequently asked ques-
tions or other relevant data. If you have recommendations for
improvement, please complete the comment card and return
it to us or, feel free to call our Sensor Device Data Handbook
hot line and we will personally record your comments. The
hot line number is 480/413–3333. We look forward to hear-
ing from you!
