RE: TI-H: pressure sensor





>Yikes! I did not know that!

obviosly.

>my sincerest apologizes for the faux pas... no offense intended...
>Can you point me to information on that temperature sensor? 

here it is along with other ti-hardware sites i know:
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/2267/sensor.html (temp)
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/3061/index.html
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lakes/5081/Richfiles.html

http://horizon.nws.net/~bryan/extend/
http://cccsrv.trevano.ch/~blutz/TIGen/TIElectronics.html
and of coarse 
www.ticalc.org


It's clear I
>know less about this than I thought.

apology accepted :)
