TEDS Pressure Sensors

Depew, NY – The Pressure Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc. offers pressure sensors and signal conditioners that support the TEDS (Transducer Electronic Data Sheet) IEEE P1451.4 standard. TEDS sensors are self-identifying transducers that contain fields that fully describe the type, operation, and attributes of the transducer, and are typically used in large channel count testing such as acoustic array applications.

The IEEE P1451.4 standard defines a mixed-mode interface that retains the traditional analog sensor signal, but adds a low-cost serial digital link to access a TEDS embedded in the sensor for self-identification and self-description. The embedded memory chip eliminates the need to manually input sensor parameters when configuring a system.  Users will be able to simplify sensor set-up, use, and maintenance, obtain calibration data, and eliminate manual data entry and error when using TEDS pressure sensors.
