MPXM2102AST1

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The MPXM2102AST1 is a silicon piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor from the MPX2102 series, manufactured by NXP USA Inc. It provides a highly accurate and linear voltage output directly proportional to applied pressure. The device features temperature compensation for enhanced stability across its operating range. Designed for board-mounted applications, it utilizes a surface-mount package with five pins. The sensor operates within a supply voltage range of 1V to 16V and supports a maximum working pressure of 100kPa, with an overload limit of 400kPa. It functions reliably in temperatures from -40°C to +125°C.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and specific tape-and-reel packaging requirements for SMT integration. Check current availability as this part may be subject to lifecycle changes or discontinuation notices. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level specifications prior to reflow soldering.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model when absolute pressure measurement is required rather than gauge or differential types. Consider the 100kPa working range and 400kPa overload capacity against application peak pressures. Evaluate the surface-mount footprint compatibility with existing PCB layouts. Verify that the analog output interface matches the input requirements of the downstream microcontroller or amplifier circuitry.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This component belongs to the MPX2102 family of pressure sensors, which includes various configurations such as gauge, differential, and absolute types. The AST1 suffix typically denotes an absolute pressure variant with specific packaging and termination styles. These devices share common underlying piezoresistive sensing technology but differ in port configuration, pressure range, and mechanical mounting options.
