Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as this component appears in listings under both NXP USA Inc. and STMicroelectronics due to historical corporate transitions. Confirm the specific suffix 'T1' indicates tape and reel packaging if required for automated assembly. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact package style and lead finish specifications needed for your PCB design to avoid compatibility issues during integration.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this sensor when a small form factor and high reliability are required for absolute pressure measurement. It is suitable for designs needing integrated temperature compensation to minimize external calibration requirements. Consider the 8-SMD package for surface mount technology constraints. Verify that the 15 kPa to 115 kPa operating range aligns with the system's pressure requirements before finalizing the component choice.
