MPX2102GP

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The MPX2102GP is a silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor manufactured by NXP USA Inc., designed for precise measurement of vented gauge pressure. It features a working pressure of 14.5 PSI (100 kPa) and a maximum pressure of 58.02 PSI (400 kPa). The device provides a ratiometric output ranging from 0 mV to 40 mV at a 10 V supply, with an accuracy of -0.6% to 0.4%. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is housed in a 4-SIP module package with PC pin termination.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Feature Summary

• Integrates a single monolithic silicon diaphragm with strain gauges and a thin-film resistor network on-chip
• Delivers laser-trimmed calibration for precise span, offset, and temperature compensation
• Provides a highly accurate and linear voltage output directly proportional to applied pressure
• Output is ratiometric to the supply voltage

Pressure Sensors Transducers Applications

• Medical devices requiring precise pressure monitoring
• Industrial process control systems
• HVAC pressure sensing applications
• Automotive fluid pressure measurement

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors as the MPX2102GP is listed as obsolete by NXP USA Inc. Confirm availability of equivalent alternatives from STMicroelectronics, which has assumed responsibility for MEMS sensor products previously produced by NXP. Ensure that replacement parts meet the same electrical specifications and package requirements for seamless integration into existing designs.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this sensor for applications requiring vented gauge pressure measurement up to 100 kPa. The 4-SIP module package facilitates through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. Consider the ratiometric output characteristic when designing signal conditioning circuits, as the output scales with the supply voltage. Verify that the operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C aligns with the environmental conditions of the target application.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

The MPX2102GP belongs to the MPX21 series of compensated pressure sensors. This series includes differential, gauge, and absolute configurations. The product line utilizes silicon piezoresistive technology to provide reliable performance across various industrial and medical applications. The specific GP suffix denotes the gauge pressure variant with a vented port configuration.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

STMicroelectronics offers the MPXM2102AS as a potential alternative within the same functional family. Verify compatibility regarding package type, as the MPXM2102AS uses a 5-SMD module compared to the 4-SIP module of the MPX2102GP. Ensure that the absolute pressure rating of the substitute matches the system requirements if the original gauge pressure specification is critical.
