Product details
Overview
FXPQ3115BVST1 from NXP Semiconductors is a compact, piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor with integrated I2C digital interface, 20 kPa–110 kPa operating range, 1.5 Pa RMS pressure noise (128× oversample), and on-chip altimetry calculation. It delivers direct 20-bit pressure (Pa) and 12-bit temperature (°C) outputs, and is biomedically certified (USP Class VI) for use in CPAP masks, inhalers, and oxygen concentrators.
For engineers reviewing the FXPQ3115BVST1 datasheet, FXPQ3115BVST1 pinout, FXPQ3115BVST1 application, or FXPQ3115BVST1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its programmable autonomous acquisition modes (1 s–9 h interval), embedded 32-sample FIFO for up to 12-day data logging, dual interrupt pins (INT1/INT2), and factory-calibrated offset/linearity across −40 °C to +85 °C.
Technical Context
The FXPQ3115BVST1 integrates MEMS pressure sensing with an ASIC containing a high-resolution ADC, digital signal processing, and I2C interface logic. Its internal compensation engine computes barometric pressure (Pa) or altitude (m) using US Standard Atmosphere 1976, eliminating MCU-side unit conversion and calibration math.
It supports three operational states-OFF, STANDBY, and ACTIVE-with SBYB bit control, and features two independently configurable interrupt outputs (INT1/INT2) for data-ready or threshold-triggered events. The device uses a fixed 7-bit I2C address (0x60) and operates with separate analog (VDD: 1.95–3.6 V) and digital (VDDIO: 1.62–3.6 V) supply rails.

Pinout & Package
FXPQ3115BVST1 is housed in an 8-pin LGA package (3.0 mm × 5.0 mm × 1.1 mm) with exposed cavity for pressure port access. Biomedical gel coating ensures USP Class VI compliance and uniform pressure transmission to the MEMS diaphragm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Analog power supply | 1.95–3.6 V rail powering MEMS, ADC, and regulators; requires 10 µF + 100 nF decoupling |

| GND | Ground reference | Common return for analog and digital sections; must be low-impedance and thermally isolated from heat sources |
| VDDIO | Digital I/O supply | 1.62–3.6 V rail for SCL/SDL/INT pins; independent of VDD to support mixed-voltage systems |
| INT2 | Programmable interrupt output | Open-drain, active-low; configurable for data-ready, FIFO-full, or pressure/temperature threshold events |
| INT1 | Programmable interrupt output | Independent second interrupt channel; supports concurrent event handling without software polling |
| SDL | I²C serial data line | Bi-directional, open-drain; requires external pull-up; supports standard/fast-mode timing per Table 8 |
| SCL | I²C serial clock line | Input-only; controls data transfer timing; tolerates up to 4 MHz with low bus capacitance (20 pF) |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPL3115A2 | Same architecture and register map; identical 0x60 I²C address; lacks USP Class VI gel coating | Not certified for direct patient airway contact; suitable for industrial or consumer altimetry only | Select FXPQ3115BVST1 for medical devices requiring biocompatibility; MPL3115A2 for cost-sensitive non-medical use |
| BMP280 | Higher max pressure (1100 hPa), lower resolution (0.01 hPa ≈ 1 Pa), no FIFO, no interrupt outputs | Limited to barometric weather stations and basic altitude estimation; no autonomous logging or medical qualification | Choose FXPQ3115BVST1 when FIFO, dual interrupts, USP Class VI, or sub-kPa accuracy in 20–110 kPa range is required |

FAQ
What is the pressure measurement range and accuracy specification of the FXPQ3115BVST1?
The FXPQ3115BVST1 has an operational pressure range of 20 kPa to 110 kPa absolute, with a calibrated range of 50 kPa to 110 kPa. Its absolute accuracy is ±0.75 kPa over −10 °C to +70 °C within that calibrated range. This accuracy is achieved through factory-trimmed offset and sensitivity coefficients stored in on-chip non-volatile memory, and the FXPQ3115BVST1 supports user-programmable offset correction to compensate for mounting-induced stress.
Does the FXPQ3115BVST1 support both barometer and altimeter modes, and how is altitude calculated?
Yes, the FXPQ3115BVST1 supports both barometer and altimeter modes. In altimeter mode, altitude is calculated internally using the measured pressure (p), user-configurable sea-level reference pressure (OFF_H), and the US Standard Atmosphere 1976 model. The result is output directly in meters with 0.0625 m LSB resolution - eliminating the need for external computation or floating-point libraries in the host MCU.
What are the power supply requirements and typical current consumption of the FXPQ3115BVST1?
The FXPQ3115BVST1 requires two independent supplies: VDD (1.95–3.6 V) for analog circuitry and VDDIO (1.62–3.6 V) for digital I/O. Typical active current is 40 µA per measurement-second in standard mode (16× oversample). In STANDBY mode, current drops to 2 µA. During acquisition/conversion, peak current reaches 2 mA. These characteristics make the FXPQ3115BVST1 well-suited for battery-powered medical wearables and portable diagnostics.
How does the FIFO and autonomous data acquisition work in the FXPQ3115BVST1?
FXPQ3115BVST1 includes a 32-sample FIFO buffer that supports autonomous data logging without host intervention. Acquisition intervals are programmable from 1 second to 9 hours. At 1 Hz, the FIFO enables up to 32 seconds of storage; at 1 sample/hour, it supports over 12 days of continuous logging. Data is timestamped and retrievable via I²C, reducing host MCU polling overhead and extending battery life in remote monitoring applications.
Is the FXPQ3115BVST1 certified for use in medical devices contacting patient airways?
Yes, the FXPQ3115BVST1 is coated with a biomedically approved gel that meets United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Biological Testing Class VI requirements - confirming its non-toxicity and non-allergenicity. This certification explicitly qualifies the FXPQ3115BVST1 for direct use in CPAP masks, inhalers, nebulizers, and other respiratory devices where the sensor interfaces with patient airways.
