Pressure and Humidity Sensors2 new killer apps!

• Pressure sensor now used in high

volume

– For GPS improvement today, and for

LBS services soon

• Humidity + temperature sensors are

also adopted in 2013

– Has reached the size, cost and

software requirements

Sensirion SHTC1 (2 x 2 x 0.8 mm)

aggregation

Smaller

antennas for

smaller phones

Operators demand for

more users per BST

+ more data per user

• Very high Q

• Excellent linearity over wide frequency range

• Low loss

• High capacitor range

• Digital control, that can be integrated

• Low power consumption (electrostatic actuation)

Combos are Driving the Inertial Sensor Market

• Discrete sensors decline but will

still be used in some platforms

• 6-axis IMUs are the hottest market

since 2012

• Because of strong price pressure

and high adoption rate, the total

market will stabilize from 20150
