  • Mass air flow sensor
    Patent number: 9441994
    Abstract: A digitally based resistance element and a processor are used with a hotwire to provide a mass airflow (MAF) sensor. A temperature sensor can provide an input to the processor which can provide signals to the digital based resistance element. The digital based resistance element may be on a first leg of a Wheatstone bridge, the hotwire on a second leg. The output of the hotwire may be provided to the processor which can modify the output such as to more closely approximate a MAF curve, and/or to address step changes initiated by the digital based resistive element.
