The log-linear output signal and pressure are related by the following formulas:
P = 10
where P is the pressure in torr, and V is the output signal in volts.
An analog output of less than 0.01 volts to near 0 volt indicates a damaged or faulty sensor.
The example on the following page shows the graphical results of the table and formulas above for nitrogen.
Pressure is plotted on the X-axis with a log scale. The output signal is plotted on the Y-axis on a linear scale.
