The DLV Series Mini Digital Output Sensor is based on the already popular DLVR series pressure sensors. This series
utilizes single chip technology and offers excellent performance over middle (5 psi to 60 psi) and barometric pressure
ranges.
The supply voltage options ease integration of the sensors into a wide range of process control and measurement
systems, allowing direct connection to either I2C or SPI serial communications channels. For battery-powered sys-
tems, the sensors can enter very low-power modes between readings to minimize load on the power supply.
These calibrated and compensated sensors provide accurate, stable output over a wide temperature range. This series is
intended for use with non-corrosive, non-ionic working fluids such as air, dry gases and the like. A Sil-Gel die coating is
added for enhanced media protection.

Device Options
The following is a list of factory programmable options. Consult the factory to learn more about the options.
R
Interface
I2C and SPI interfaces are available. NOTE: SPI interface is only available with eight (8) lead packages.
Supply Voltage
Devices are characterized at either 3.3V or 5.0V depending on the options selected. It is suggested to
select the option that most closely matches the application supply voltage for best possible performance.
Signed Original On File
Speed/Power
www.allsensors.com
There are four options of Speed/Power. These are Fast(F), Noise Reduced(N), Low Power(L) and Sleep
mode(S).
Fast Mode(F) Is the fastest operating mode where the device operates with continuous sampling at
the fastest internal speed.
Noise Reduced(N): Also operates with continuous samples however the ADC is set for over sampling
for noise reduction. The conversion times are resultantly longer than the Fast(F) mode however, there
is approximately 1/2 bit reduction in noise.
Low Power(L): Is similar to the Fast(F) mode with exception that the device uses an internal timer to
delay between pressure conversions. The internal timer time-out triggers the next conversion cycle.
The update rate is commensurately lower for this mode as a result.
Sleep(S): Is similar to the Low Power(L) mode however the trigger to initiate a sample comes from the
user instead of an internal timer. This is ideal for very low update rate applications that require low
power usage. It is also ideal for synchronizing the data conversions with the host microprocessor.

Operation Overview
The DLV is a digital sensor with a signal path that includes a sensing element, a 14 bit analog to digital converter, a DSP
and an IO block that supports either an I2C or SPI interface (see Figure 1 below). The sensor also includes an internal
temperature reference and associated control logic to support the configured operating mode. The sensing element is
powered down while not being sampled to conserve power. Since there is a single ADC, there is also a multiplexer at
the front end of the ADC that selects the signal source for the ADC.

The ADC performs conversions on the raw sensor signal (P), the temperature reference (T) and a zero reference (Z) dur-
ing an ADC zero cycle. It also has an oversampling mode for a noise reduced output. A conversion cycle that is measuring
pressure is called a Normal cycle. A cycle where either a temperature measurement or zeroing is being performed is called a
Special cycle.
The DSP receives the converted pressure and temperature information and applies a multi-order transfer function to
compensate the pressure output. This transfer function includes compensation for span, offset, temperature effects of span,
temperature effects on offset and second order temperature effects on both span and offset. There is also linearity compen-
sation for all devices.
There are two effective operating modes of the sensor 1) Free Running and 2) Triggered. The control logic performs the
synchronization of the internal functions according the factory programmed Power/Speed option (see Table 1). The
Control Logic also determines the Delay between ADC samples, the regularity of the Special cycles and whether or not
the ADC performs the Over Sampling. Refer to Figure 2 for the communication model associated with the operating
modes listed below.
Free Running Mode: In the free running mode, conversion cycles are initiated internally at regular intervals. There
are three options available that operate in the Free Running mode (F, N and L). Two of these (F and N) run con-
tinuously while the third option (L) has an approximate 6 ms delay between conversion cycles. All three options
have Special cycles inserted at regular intervals to accomplish the ADC zeroing and temperature measurements.
Two of the options utilize oversampling. Refer to Table 1 for specific option controls.
Triggered Mode: In the Triggered Mode, a conversion cycle is initiated by the user (or host uP). There are two
availabe methods to wake the sensor from sleep mode. The first method (Wake All) is to wake the sensor and
perform all three measurement cycles (Z, T and P). This provides completely fresh data from the sensor. The
second method (Wake P) is to wake the sensor from sleep and only perform the pressure measurement (P).When
using this second method, it is up to the user to interleave Wake All commands at regular intervals to ensure there
is sufficiently up to date temperature information. Also, the Wake Pressure method is only available from the I2C
interface (not available using a SPI interface).
