About Sensor Chips
Sensor chips are dies incorporating semiconductor circuit elements that are used to convert changes to some physical parameter to an electrical signal. There are several kinds of sensor chips: temperature, gas and liquid pressure, load cells (force sensors), chemical (pH, oxygen, carbon dioxide), magnetic, mechanical (acceleration, position, pressure, knock, rotation), optical (single-chip cameras, edge detectors, and image pattern recognizers), medical (protein interactions) and others. Like other semiconductors, a sensor chip can be flexible, and can be manufactured as a signal conditioning chip, a stand-alone transducer, or a combination.
Performance specifications for pressure sensor chips include pressure range, supply voltage, impedance, impedance temperature coefficient, bandwidth, accuracy, and long term stability. Performance specifications for temperature sensor chips include temperature range, supply voltage, impedance, impedance temperature coefficient, bandwidth, and accuracy. Other sensor chips have specifications unique to the application. For example, single-chip cameras have array resolution, pixel pitch, fill factor, array size, peak responsivity, sensitivity, and dynamic range, among others.
