Product details
Overview
KP229N0421XTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a monolithic silicon piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor with integrated signal conditioning, delivering 0–400 kPa full-scale range, ±1.5% FS total error band (TEB), and analog output (0.5–4.5 V ratiometric), used in automotive HVAC and industrial process monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the KP229N0421XTMA1 datasheet, KP229N0421XTMA1 pinout, KP229N0421XTMA1 application, or KP229N0421XTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include absolute pressure range, TEB over temperature, supply voltage tolerance, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with PCB-level calibration workflows.
Technical Context
This sensor integrates a piezoresistive sensing element with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors for offset and span compensation, plus an on-chip ASIC providing amplification, temperature compensation, and ratiometric voltage output. It operates from 4.75–5.25 V supply and supports –40°C to +125°C ambient range.
The device implements second-order polynomial temperature compensation across its operating range and delivers factory-calibrated output with nonlinearity <±0.25% FS. No external components are required for basic operation, and the output remains stable under mechanical stress due to SOIC-8 leadframe design.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 0–400 kPa absolute; enables direct measurement of intake manifold or refrigerant line pressure without reference venting. |
| Total Error Band | ±1.5% FS over –40°C to +125°C; specifies worst-case deviation including offset, span, nonlinearity, hysteresis, and thermal effects. |
| Output Signal | 0.5–4.5 V ratiometric to supply; simplifies ADC interfacing by eliminating separate reference voltage circuitry. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V; compatible with standard 5 V automotive and industrial power rails with ±5% tolerance. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C ambient; qualified for under-hood and industrial control cabinet deployment. |
| Package | SOIC-8 narrow-body; surface-mount footprint with gasketed port for sealed media interface and reflow-compatible assembly. |
Pinout & Package
SOIC-8 (3.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch) with integrated pressure port on underside; moisture-resistant mold compound and gold-plated leads for long-term reliability in humid environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VS | Supply voltage input | Connects to regulated 5 V rail; internal ESD protection clamps to VS and GND. |
| GND | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path for sensor core and output driver; must be routed separately from digital ground. |
| VOUT | Analog output | 0.5–4.5 V ratiometric signal; drives 10 kΩ minimum load; requires 100 nF local decoupling at source. |
| NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; left floating per datasheet; no external tie required. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated temperature compensation | Second-order polynomial correction applied in ASIC; eliminates need for external lookup tables or MCU-based compensation. |
| Laser-trimmed thin-film resistors | Factory-trimmed for offset and span; achieves ±1.5% TEB without post-assembly calibration. |
| Ratiometric output | Output scales linearly with supply voltage; removes sensitivity to 5 V rail drift in noisy environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPX5700AP | Wider 0–700 kPa range; ±2.0% FS TEB; requires external voltage regulator for 5 V operation. | Used where higher pressure headroom is needed, e.g., turbocharged engine manifolds. | Select MPX5700AP only if >400 kPa range is required; otherwise KP229N0421XTMA1 offers tighter TEB and simpler supply design. |
| SSCDANT015PDAA3 | Digital I²C output; ±1.0% FS TEB; includes internal diagnostics but requires firmware integration. | Fits designs needing multi-sensor daisy-chaining or self-test capability in medical devices. | Choose SSCDANT015PDAA3 when digital interface and diagnostic flags are mandatory; KP229N0421XTMA1 suits analog-only systems with minimal BOM count. |
Compared with MPX5700AP and SSCDANT015PDAA3, KP229N0421XTMA1 provides optimal balance of analog simplicity, ±1.5% TEB accuracy, and SOIC-8 direct-mount usability-ideal for cost-sensitive, high-volume HVAC and industrial control applications requiring no firmware overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum media temperature the KP229N0421XTMA1 can withstand?
The sensor die is isolated from media by a stainless-steel diaphragm and silicone oil fill; it supports media temperatures up to +150°C. However, the SOIC-8 package limits ambient operating temperature to +125°C - prolonged exposure above this degrades long-term TEB performance and solder joint integrity.
Does KP229N0421XTMA1 require external calibration after soldering?
No. The device undergoes full factory calibration including thermal compensation coefficients stored in on-chip memory. Post-reflow drift is covered within the ±1.5% FS total error band specification, so no end-of-line calibration is needed for standard applications.
Can KP229N0421XTMA1 be used in differential pressure configurations?
No. KP229N0421XTMA1 is an absolute pressure sensor with a sealed vacuum reference cavity. It lacks a second port or vent path required for differential measurement; using it in differential setups will produce invalid or saturated output.
Is the SOIC-8 package of KP229N0421XTMA1 RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes. Infineon certifies KP229N0421XTMA1 as fully RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU compliant and REACH SVHC-free. The lead finish is matte tin, and the mold compound meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL3) requirements.
