Honeywell, Inc. announced that it will be showcasing a variety of products at the upcoming Electronica show in Hall 13, Booth 325 November 11-14 in Munich. Among those, will be two new products introduced this year, Honeywell's Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) Sensor ICs, Nanopower Series and new additions to Honeywell's Basic Board Mount Pressure Sensors – the Basic Compensated, Unamplified Board Mount Pressure Sensors.

Being demonstrated for the first time in Europe, Honeywell’s AMR Sensor ICs, Nanopower Series are an industry first and provide the highest level of magnetic sensitivity while requiring Nanopower. They offer design engineers a number of advantages compared to other widely used magnetic technologies and can be used in a variety of applications including water, gas and electricity meters, industrial smoke detectors, exercise equipment, security systems, handheld computers, as well as white goods, medical equipment and consumer electronics. Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) team members will be on hand to provide demonstrations of the new AMR sensors at the show.

The new Basic Board Mount Pressure Sensors, Compensated, Unamplified, TBP Series are designed for customers who require simple, high quality, cost-effective, basic performance. They have an mV output sensor that is compensated and unamplified so customers can do their own amplification while retaining maximum resolution.

The TBP Series was designed to be flexible and meet varying needs. Their small size and numerous package options simplify placement on crowded PC boards, a wide pressure range allows for use in applications requiring higher pressures, and their low current consumption allows for use in battery applications.
