The apparatus includes a housing; a plurality of sensors mounted on the housing, each of the sensors including a sensing element and an electrical output connected to said sensing element. The apparatus also includes a plurality of inputs connected to the sensors, respectively, to transmit to the sensors. A circuit is mounted in the housing and in electrical connection with the electrical outputs to provide a common signal conditioner for the sensors.

Apparatus for measuring multiple pressures

A temperature sensor using doped polysilicon resistors in a bridge configuration, an amplifier, and a doped polysilicon feedback resistor between the input and the output of the amplifier. The polysilicon resistors are doped with selected concentrations of impurities such as boron, phosphorus, arsenic or antimony. The resistors are doped to establish predetermined temperature coefficients so that the resistors exhibit a predetermined temperature dependence. This temperature dependence is utilized to create a temperature sensor that is stable, accurate, and rugged and that has a generally linear output to temperature response.

Temperature sensor and method

A pressure sensor including a housing having an interior surface forming a cavity, and a fill passageway communicating with the cavity. The fill passageway has opposite ends defining an axis extending between the ends, and one of ends defines a fill port spaced from the cavity. A pressure transducer is mounted on said interior surface. The pressure sensor also includes a sealing member moveable across the fill port in a direction transverse to the axis between a first position allowing fluid flow through the fill passageway and a second position closing the fill passageway such that the fluid is sheared off at the fill port to seal said cavity. Preferably, the fluid pressure within the cavity before sealing is substantially equal to the fluid pressure within the cavity after sealing.
