Arduino vacuum gauge.
Initial build used a 10k pot in place of a vacuum gauge to make it simpler.
When the 5v changes the resulting measured pressure does not change and is still accurate.
The vacuum gauge outputs 0 10vdc.
Absolute pressure is referenced to the pressure in a vacuum whereas gauge and differential pressures are referenced to another pressure such as the ambient atmospheric pressure or pressure in an adjacent vessel.
Arduino code for air pressure measurement.
Luckely they have also a vacuum sensor with a large range for example the mpxv6115v.
The oled screen simply plugs in over the arduino which made for a nice compact board.
The processor in the vacuum gauge reads the 4 vacuum ports simultaneously digital filtering is applied to smooth out the vacuum readings useful on idling engines to get a steady reading the filtered value is then converted to kpa psi inhg or mmhg the calibration data from the eeprom is added to each of the vacuum readings.
Those sensors are ratiometric.
