Mansfield, Texas, USA – June 2007 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., known for its rapid new product introduction, today announced it has expanded its catalog offering of Freescale sensor products to highlight their broad selection of pressure sensors. For over 25 years, Freescale has been a leading provider of inertial, pressure, and proximity sensors for the appliance, automotive, consumer, industrial, and medical markets.

All Freescale sensors are compatible with their microprocessors, which provide customers the key components needed for their sensing solutions. Customers are able to design-in and use Freescale sensor technology to lower overall design cost and reduce time-to-market.

“Adding more of Freescale’s sensor products to our catalog is another example of meeting the needs of the engineering community and the requirements for their new design projects,” said Mike Scott, Mouser Vice President of Active Products.

Freescale’s pressure sensors combine advanced piezoresistive sensor architecture with integrated circuit technology and feature a wide operating temperature of -40˚C to 125˚C. The fully conditioned, compensated, and calibrated pressure sensors are available in a variety of packaging and porting options for design flexibility. The pressure sensor portfolio has solutions that measure over and under pressure to ensure applications have positive and negative pressure reading where necessary.

Mouser also stocks Freescale’s acceleration, safety, alarm, and proximity capacitive touch sensors in addition to other embedded semiconductors for the wireless, networking, automotive, consumer, and industrial markets.
