Temperature Compensation

diaphragm, there are no temperature effects due to
differences in the thermal expansion of the strain gauge and
the diaphragm, as are often encountered in bonded strain
gauge pressure sensors. However, the properties of the
strain gauge itself are temperature dependent, requiring that
the device be temperature compensated if it is to be used
over an extensive temperature range.
