The NN-based sensor can automatically compensate for the nonlinear response characteristics and its nonlinear dependency on the environmental parameters with high accuracy. To show the potential of the proposed NN-based framework we provide results of a smart capacitive pressure sensor CPS operating in a wide temperature range of 0 to 250 C. Through simulated experiments we have shown that the NN-based CPS model is capable of providing pressure readout with a maximum full-scale FS error of only over this temperature range. A novel scheme for estimating the ambient temperature from the sensor characteristics itself is proposed. For this purpose a second NN is utilized to estimate the ambient temperature accurately from the knowledge of the offset capacitance of the CPS. A microcontroller-unit- MCU- based implementation scheme is also provided. Keywords and phrases intelligent sensors artificial neural networks autocompensation. 1. INTRODUCTION In many practical .
