Airflow-Based Power Adjustment Vaping Solution Debuts, Similar to Juul Sensor
At the event, HeXin Microelectronics showcased an electronic cigarette solution board that adjusts power based on airflow size for the first time. According to reports, this solution board has the following highlights:
-
It uses a different airflow sensor than traditional microphones, which can adjust product power based on airflow pressure, and features waterproof and oil-proof characteristics;
-
The working principle of this sensor is similar to that of Juul's pressure sensor;
-
Additionally, the electronic cigarette brand FLOW plans to adopt this solution, with the release date yet to be determined.
According to supply chain news, the American electronic cigarette brand Juul uses a pressure sensor costing $2 each as a switch component, with each device containing two such sensors. Unlike the commonly understood pressure of pressing, here, the pressure actually refers to airflow pressure.
Previous reports indicated that Juul's main sensor supplier is TE Connectivity, and their products are known for being compatible with detecting liquid and gas pressure. For example, one of their board-mounted pressure sensors can be installed on a printed circuit board to measure gas or liquid pressure.
