Miniature Analog Design—Size Does Matter!

"Smaller! And use conventional technology." Electronics is not the message in the world of high-vacuum industrial control where miniaturization, reliability, accuracy and day-in, day-out performance really count.

Pressure Sensor Product Family

Orchid Technologies Engineering and Consulting Inc. performed the electronics design and packaging engineering required to retrofit a family of low cost, highly reliable solid state sensors onto our customer's existing venturi-vacuum pump product line. Working within our client's demanding maximum size constraints, Orchid developed a line of miniature analog pressure sensor products which boast big features:

• 15.0 to -15.0 psi Range
• 0.0 to 150.0 psi Range
• Manual Hysteresis Set Point
• Manual Trip Set Point
• NPN Output Stage
• PNP Output Stage
• 0 to 20mA Output Sensor
• 0 to 10V Output Sensor
• 24 VDC Powered
• 1% Accuracy over Range and Temp

Analog Design Packed Under One Cubic Inch

Drawing from Orchid's years of analog design know-how, we crammed state-of-the-art electronics into a package volume smaller than 1.0 cubic inch. A panelized circuit board design augmented with circuit board assembly options completes the picture by holding inventory costs down.

High Volume Production By Design

Designed for high-volume production, individual units are assembled on a 96-up panel. Orchid's custom designed panelization technique lowers circuit board, in-circuit test, functional test, and inventory costs.
