Pressure sensor reading with arduino

Post by lorenzo123 »

hello everyone,

I am working with a piezoresistive pressure sensor. i am willing to measure the in cylinder pressure of a diesel engine.
it is a beru PSG 002 sensor with following technical data:

Operating temperature -40 – 140°C (max. 150°C)
Pressure range 0 – 200 bar (max. 210 bar)
Sensor
Power supply (Vdd) 5,0 V or 3,3 V
Output signal ratio metric
Bandwidth 0 to 5 kHz
Accuracy ± 2%

The next thing i would like to do is plot the data on my computer monitor. can anyone help me out with a code to do so?

thank you in advance

The Arduino can output data as serial strings. You would need to write a program for the PC that takes serial string data (pressure numbers) and draws it as a graph.
