Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify moisture sensitivity level (MSL 5A) handling requirements during storage and assembly. Confirm that the specific 0.18 PSI gauge pressure rating aligns with system operational limits. Ensure the 14-SOIC package dimensions match the target PCB footprint. Validate supply voltage constraints against the circuit design to prevent damage or inaccurate readings.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-range gauge pressure measurement is required in a compact surface-mount form factor. The amplified analog voltage output simplifies signal conditioning compared to raw bridge sensors. Consider the ±1.5% accuracy tolerance for applications where high precision is not critical. The wide operating temperature range supports deployment in varied environmental conditions.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This part belongs to the NPA-300 series of MEMS pressure sensors, designed for cost-effective and reliable performance in volume production. The series utilizes silicon-based technology to provide consistent sensing capabilities. As a board-mount solution, it integrates directly into electronic assemblies without requiring external mechanical housing, reducing overall system size and complexity.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

Consult official datasheets for cross-referencing with other NPA-300 variants having different pressure ranges or output interfaces. Verify pinout compatibility before substituting with similar SOIC-packaged sensors from other manufacturers.
