ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for calibrating a mass air flow sensor in which the sensing elements of the sensor are subjected to an oscillating mass air flow summed with an offset mass air flow to produce the summed mass air flow. The output waveform of the mass air flow in response to the summed mass air flow is displayed on a display having a desired waveform superimposed thereon. Selected resistors in the sensor's electronic circuit are then trimmed to conform the waveform output by the mass air flow sensor with the superimposed desired waveform.
