Absolute pressure sensor

The absolute pressure sensor is a measuring device (also see Sensor) for converting the physical quantity of "absolute pressure" into a corresponding digital output variable when atmospheric pressure is measured, for example.

Absolute pressure sensors are used in barometers to measure the atmospheric pressure. They are also used in altimeters working on the barometric principle to measure the prevailing atmospheric pressure at a measuring location.
