Electronica: Eval kit for 3.5 x 3.5mm air velocity sensor

Flusso has launched an evaluation kit for its forthcoming 3.5 x 3.5mm FLS122 flow sensor.

The kit is plug and play, with the sensor on a small PCB that connects to a host PC, and associated software for the PC.

The sensor module is configured and calibrated via an I²C cable.

FLS122, announced in May, is claimed by Flusso to be the “world’s smallest air velocity sensor”, and supports bidirectional flow sensing for real-time air speed and temperature measurement.

It works over a range of 0 to 20m/s, with better than 5% accuracy. Operating range is -40 to +85°C.

“Although the FLS122 was launched to target thermal management and filter monitoring applications, it is being increasingly evaluated by customers for use in handheld, battery-powered test equipment on account of its low power and integration flexibility,” according to the company.

The first FLS122 sensor are expected to ship early this month.

Flusso will have the air velocity sensor and evaluation kit on stand 537 in hall B3 at Electronica in Munich (15 – 18 Nov 2022).
