User Guide
This tool will calculate the expected output signal from a pressure sensor of a certain specified pressure range and applied pressure. It is also possible to reverse the function of the tool to calculate the applied pressure expected to produce a specific output reading.
Many types of pressure sensor output types can be selected which include various millivolt, voltage, current, digital and square root extraction output types.
You can add the the pressure range by selecting the lower and upper range limits in one set of units, typically bar or psi for most manufacturers, and then, the applied pressure in your own preferred pressure units.

Pressure
This is the pressure which is measured by the pressure sensor, you can either enter a value to see what output to expect from a pressure sensor or you can enter the value verified by a calibration reference and compare it to the actual output to determine the calibration error.
Low Limit
This is lowest pressure which the sensor will measure, and is used to define the lower limit of the pressure range, that also corresponds to the lowest output value.
High Limit
This is highest pressure which the sensor will measure, and is used to define the upper limit of the pressure range, that also corresponds to the highest output value.
Output
This is what the pressure sensor sends out in the form of an analogue signal or digital reading. The output will typically vary proportionally with the measurement range as a straight line, although there will be slight deviations due to the accuracy limitations of the pressure sensor.
