MPXA4100AC6U

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The MPXA4100AC6U is an absolute pressure sensor manufactured by NXP USA Inc., designed for surface-mount applications. It features a piezoresistive sensing element with temperature compensation and signal conditioning integrated on-chip. The device operates within a pressure range of 2.9 PSI to 15.23 PSI (20 kPa to 105 kPa). It provides an analog voltage output ranging from 0.3 V to 4.9 V, powered by a supply voltage between 4.85 V and 5.35 V. The sensor exhibits an accuracy of ±1.8% and functions reliably in temperatures from -40°C to 125°C. It utilizes an 8-SMD, gull-wing package with a top port.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C6U' against official NXP documentation to confirm package type and pin configuration. Ensure that the operating environment remains within the specified temperature and pressure limits. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required for your manufacturing standards. Check for any obsolescence notices or lifecycle changes directly from the manufacturer before finalizing procurement plans.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this component when an absolute pressure measurement within the 20 kPa to 105 kPa range is required. The integrated signal conditioning simplifies circuit design by providing a direct analog voltage output. Consider the 8-SMD package size and gull-wing termination for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the power supply voltage aligns with the 4.85 V to 5.35 V operational window for optimal performance.
