### 2. Internal Electronic Architecture
The device consists of four main electronic stages:
#### A. Pressure Sensing Element
* **Type:** Piezoresistive Silicon Bridge.
* **Function:** As pressure is applied, the resistance of the silicon diaphragm changes, creating a small millivolt signal.
#### B. Signal Conditioning (Analog Front-End)
* **ADC:** An Analog-to-Digital Converter processes the raw signal.
* **Temperature Compensation:** Internal thermistors adjust the reading to prevent drift caused by environmental heat.
#### C. Control Logic (Microcontroller)
* The MCU handles the **Hysteresis Mode** and **Window Comparator Mode**.
* It stores the set-points (thresholds) in non-volatile memory so settings are retained after power loss.
#### D. Output Stage
* **Transistor:** A PNP transistor acts as the switch. When the pressure reaches the set-point, the transistor allows current to flow to the load.
* **Protection:** Diodes are used to prevent damage from "Back-EMF" when driving inductive loads like solenoid valves.

### 4. Display and Feedback
The "Electronic Brain" of the unit drives a **3-color LCD or LED display**.
* **Red/Green Toggle:** The electronics change the backlight color based on whether the pressure is within the "OK" range or "Alarm" range.
* **Resolution:** Usually provides 3.5 to 4 digits of precision.
