Description:
This electronic
pressure gauge uses a Wheatstone bridge-type pressure sensor to drive a 3 1/2 digit A/D
converter and a display. IC1 is a pump (quad) that interfaces the bridge sensor to the A/D
converter. R16 provides zero adjustment and R6 provides full-scale calibration. D1 through
D4 provide temperature compensation. (Reprinted with permission from R-E Experimenters
