SDP1000 / SDP2000 Product Summary
The SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure sensors
for air cover the following measurement ranges: –5 to
125 Pa (0.5 inch H
2
O), -20 to 500 Pa (2 inch H
2
O), and -
100 to 3500 Pa (14 inch H
2
O).
Mounted in a rugged, chemically inert PPS housing the
SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure sensors
feature a unique dynamic range, zero offset and
unsurpassed long term stability. This makes it an ideal fit
for demanding yet cost sensitive OEM applications in
HVAC and medical equipment.
The devices are supplied with 5.0 V and provide a
0.25…4.0 V output. Although the output of the
SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure sensor is
analog, the internal linearization and temperature
compensation is performed digitally. This results in a
superior accuracy, outstanding resolution (up to 0.05
Pa), and lowest temperature dependence. The SDP1000
is available with a linear or square root extracted output
characteristics at the same price. Since fully
exchangeable just a few external electronic components
around the SDP1000 / SDP2000 make a high quality
differential sensor transmitter with e.g. an 0...10
V output
or other interfaces (see Figure 8).
Its leading performance is based on Sensirion’s
proprietary CMOSens
®
sensor technology which
combines the sensor element with amplification and A/D
conversion on one single silicon chip. The differential
pressure is measured by a thermal sensor element. In
contrast to other thermal differential pressure sensors
only a very small amount of air is required (see
Figure
6). This leads to a reliable operation even under
harsh conditions. In comparison to membrane based
sensors the SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure
sensors show an extended measurement range, better
offset stability and improved reproducibility even at
lowest pressure ranges (see Figure 1 and 2). In addition
the SDP1000 / SDP2000 is robust against pressure
bursts and shows no sensitivity to the mounting
orientation.
SDP1000 / SDP2000 is fully RoHS compliant.

1.1 Temperature Compensation
The SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure
sensors feature a sophisticated built-in temperature
compensation circuit. The temperature is measured
on the CMOSens chip by means of a PTAT bandgap
reference temperature sensor. Its data is fed into a
compensation circuit which is also integrated on the
CMOSens
®
sensor chip. No external temperature
compensation is therefore required.
1.2 Altitude Correction
The SDP1000 / SDP2000 differential pressure
sensors achieve their unsurpassed performance by
using a dynamic measurement principle, i.e. an
applied differential pressure forces a small air flow
through the sensor. This results in a dependence of
the indicated differential pressure on the ambient air
density. While the temperature effect is compensated
(see Paragraph 1.1) the altitude above sea level has
an influence on the SDP1000 / SDP2000 output. If
desired, this effect can be compensated by a
correction factor according to the following equation:
Dp
eff
= Dp
sensor
*
P
cal
/ P
amb
where Dp
eff
is the effective differential pressure,
Dp
sensor
the differential pressure indicated by the
SDP1000 / SDP2000, P
cal
the absolute pressure
during calibration (966 mbar) and P
amb
the actual
ambient absolute pressure.
This leads to the following correction factors:

Example:
The SDP1000 is used at 750 m above sea level. The
output of the SDP1000 shows 0.5 V, which
corresponds to Dp
sensor
= 33.3 Pa. Taking into account
the correction factor P
cal
/ P
amb
= 1.04 the effective
differential pressure Dp
eff
is 33.3 Pa * 1.04 = 34.6 Pa.
Note:
In many HVAC applications such as filter monitoring,
fan/ventilator control or air flow measurement the
described effect is actually welcome since at the end
the mass flow and not volume flow is the effective
value to control.
