Re: Digital display for pressure sensor help needed



I am not sure if "it's too complicate for you" part and have no idea if
pressure sensors are cheap but all you are telling here sounds like
MicroController and some sensors. Take a look at following link. it's
unrelated to the your subject but it's again Controler and Sensors:

I want to build a cuircut that will digitaly display air pressure
(0-200+ PSI) from 4 or 5 different sources on one small screen. Here
are my questions:

- Is this project feasible for someone with little knowledge of
electronics?

- Accuracy is not critical within a PSI or two would be fine. Would it
be simpler to use analog sending units or digital sensors?

- How would the cuircut work? Would it somehow take the signal from the
sensors and convert it to pounds per square inch and then send it to
something that would display that information on a LCD screen?

- What would be a rough estimate of the cost of this project?

Thank you,
