MEMSCAP develops the most advanced piezoresistive sensors for avionics applications

The project is called stegs (sensor technology sensor technology green jet engine, green and safe jet engine application), national institutions research and development project driven by the user in charge of Norway announced the start of the project for 3 years, the European project funds 1 million 300 thousand yuan will be used to support the development of strong pressure sensor and reliable and accurate and stable, to meet the future needs of aviation electronic industry.

Stegs project led by MEMSCAP, SINTEF (Norway University of Technology) to participate in, the goal is designed for high-end FADEC applications to develop new MEMS piezoresistive pressure sensor products. At present, the United States has famous manufacturers and space exploration and the field of aviation electronics and U.S. government agencies to establish cooperation, they will test the customer as a new generation of products, evaluate new products in harsh environments.

For FADEC applications, sensors can optimize engines and reduce long-term wear, which is one of the key factors in reducing fuel consumption. Sensors also monitor engine working conditions and alert as early as possible serious failures. The stegs project will make full use of existing MEMSCAP solutions in the drift of the one and only proprietary technology and other important properties, to one of the market segments -- Application of FADEC was the highest in the field of aviation electronics and aerospace, provide reliable solutions.

Module products for aerospace applications for aviation control system all over the world and the design of MEMSCAP, its wide range of applications covering engine control, pressure control, air chamber height and data, altimeter, airspeed indicator and space applications.
