Abstract

A method for compensating for the differences in temperature across a cell used to sense pressure. A microprocessor calculates a dynamic temperature factor signal by multiplying a signal representative of temperature change across the cell by a coefficient based on measurements made of the effect of temperature change on the cell. The dynamic temperature factor signal is then subtracted from the signal representative of the differential pressure sensed by the cell to thereby provide the dynamic temperature compensation.
