The global Automotive Pressure Sensors market size is projected to reach approximately USD 10,300 Million by 2030, at a CAGR of 9% from 2020 to 2030. A pressure sensor is designed to measure the pressure found in gases or liquids. Pressure is a measurement of the force that stops fluid from expanding and is usually expressed in terms of force per square unit of area. A pressure sensor is a device that transmits an electrical signal when in contact with varying pressure.
The automotive pressure sensors market is expected to grow in the coming years due to the increasing demand for safety and security features in vehicles. Pressure sensors are used in a variety of applications such as tire pressure monitoring, engine control, and transmission control. The increasing demand for fuel-efficient and emission-reduction vehicles is also expected to boost the demand for pressure sensors.
MEMs sensors are high-precision sensors that serve a wide array of automotive applications. They were originally expensive and were used on luxury vehicles. However, in recent years, the installation of these pressure sensors has increased due to government regulations regarding the security of passengers. MEMs sensors project huge growth due to the development in CMOS tech. It will be more advanced and integrated in the future. With an increase in the installation of pressure sensors, automotive vehicles are expected to have a safer ride while passengers are also likely to enjoy improved safety. This will result in increased spending on pressure sensors and the market is expected to boom.
Several factors are restraining the growth of the automotive pressure sensors market. Firstly, the high cost of pressure sensors is a major barrier to adoption, as automotive manufacturers are increasingly looking to reduce costs. Secondly, the automotive industry is highly competitive, and pressure sensors are not currently a standard feature on vehicles. This means that there is little incentive for manufacturers to adopt them, as they would be at a competitive disadvantage. Finally, the automotive sector is currently facing several challenges, including the transition to electric vehicles, which is likely to have an impact on the demand for pressure sensors.
Automotive pressure sensors are used in a wide range of automotive applications, from simple pressure gauges to complex engine management systems. This growth in the automotive industry is driven by the increasing demand for electric cars and soaring growth rates in China. and India.

January 2024: In Belgium, Melexis has introduced its first Triphibian MEMS pressure sensor using a new patented architecture.
Melexis’ Triphibian MEMS pressure sensor operates in gas and liquid measurements from 2 to 70 bar and is packaged in a 16-pin SO16 package.
The sensing mechanism consists of a cantilever with the diaphragm suspended at its tip, which enables the sensor to withstand pressure spikes up to 2000 bar/msec and static bursts up to 210 bar. The two available calibrated ranges (10 or 35 bar) are each tailored for different EV thermal management systems, such as low/high-pressure refrigeration loops.
To facilitate integration with advanced electric vehicles' thermal management systems, the factory-calibrated device measures absolute pressure and provides a proportional analog output signal.
According to Melexis, this novel ability is made possible by Triphibian technology for MEMS sensors that can make accurate measurements even when in contact with liquids above five bars.
The MLX90830’s design inherently offers more mechanical ruggedness than rear-side exposed solutions with a pressure difference between the glass pedestal side and wire bonding side. Equally applicable for cryogenic media, this allows the MLX90830’s first-ever use in MEMS pressure sensors to operate under such conditions, thus making it able to survive being frozen.
It includes an analog output driver interface, digital hardware, voltage regulators and a sensor readout circuit. The bridge resistors on the membrane consist of piezo-resistive elements, which form part of Wheatstone Bridge, generating an output signal. This signal is amplified and converted into digital format so that Digital Signal Processing (DSP), which is sixteen-bit, applies temperature compensation before providing the result as an analog output per se.
For instance, this sensor also features advanced protection against overvoltage (above +40 V) and reverse voltage (below -40 V). Therefore, it can be used with trucks. The MLX90830 has been developed as a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) under ISO 26262, enabling up to ASIL B system integration, ensuring it meets the latest EV safety demands.
