Product details
Overview
MP3V5050GP from NXP is a monolithic silicon piezoresistive gauge pressure sensor with 0–50 kPa full-scale range, ratiometric analog output (0.053–2.888 V at 3.0 V supply), ±2.5% accuracy over 0 °C to 85 °C, and on-chip temperature compensation for use in microcontroller-based medical diagnostics and pump control systems.
For engineers reviewing the MP3V5050GP datasheet, MP3V5050GP pinout, MP3V5050GP application, or MP3V5050GP equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (Case 98ASA99303D), confirmed pin functions (VS/VOUT/GND), calibrated transfer function (VOUT = VS × (0.018 × P + 0.04)), and real-world design constraints including decoupling requirements and fluorosilicone-gel-protected P1-side porting.
Technical Context
The MP3V5050GP integrates a patented silicon shear-stress strain gauge with thin-film metallization and bipolar processing to deliver high-level analog output directly proportional to applied gauge pressure. Its fully integrated signal chain includes on-chip temperature compensation, dual-stage gain amplification, and ground-reference shift circuitry - all optimized for direct interface with 10-bit+ ADCs in embedded systems.
It operates ratiometrically across 2.7–3.3 V supply, exhibits 1.0 ms response time, and maintains ±0.5% VFSS offset stability after 1000-hour pulsed pressure/temperature cycling. The device requires external decoupling (1.0 µF + 470 pF) per Figure 5 to meet electrical specifications and is qualified for operation from −40 °C to +125 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 0–50 kPa gauge; defines usable sensing span for medical BP monitoring and level detection circuits. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7–3.3 VDC; ratiometric operation ensures output scaling tracks supply variations, simplifying power rail design. |
| Full-Scale Output | 2.752–2.888 V at 3.0 V supply; enables direct connection to 3.3 V MCU ADCs without level-shifting. |
| Accuracy | ±2.5% of full-scale span (VFSS) over 0–85 °C; includes linearity, hysteresis, and thermal errors - critical for diagnostic-grade calibration. |
| Response Time | 1.0 ms (10%–90%); supports dynamic pressure capture in robotics and motor control feedback loops. |
| Sensitivity | 54 mV/kPa; provides predictable voltage-per-pressure slope for linear software compensation. |
| Warm-up Time | 20 ms; defines minimum delay before valid readings post-power-on in battery-powered portable devices. |
Pinout & Package
MP3V5050GP uses thermoplastic (PPS) surface-mount small outline package Case 98ASA99303D, with side-mounted barbed port on the P1 (fluorosilicone-gel-protected) side. Pin 1 is identified by notch; pins 1, 5–8 are no-connect (DNC).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Do not connect; mechanical notch reference only - floating pin avoids parasitic coupling or ESD paths. |
| 2 | VS | Voltage supply input (2.7–3.3 V); must be decoupled with 1.0 µF + 470 pF per datasheet Figure 5. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference; requires low-impedance return path to minimize noise in 54 mV/kPa output. |
| 4 | VOUT | Ratiometric analog output (0.053–2.888 V); connects directly to MCU ADC with optional RC filtering. |
| 5–8 | DNC | No-connect terminals; must remain unconnected to prevent signal integrity degradation or calibration drift. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar gauge pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPX5050GP | Legacy Freescale part; identical 0–50 kPa range and SOP-8 package but lacks updated on-chip temp compensation algorithm of MP3V5050GP. | Lower accuracy (±3.0% VFSS) and narrower temp-compensated range (−40 °C to +85 °C vs. +125 °C). | Select MP3V5050GP for new designs requiring extended temperature qualification and tighter error budget. |
| MP3V5010GP | Same family, same package, but 0–10 kPa range; shares identical pinout, transfer function, and compensation architecture. | Optimized for low-pressure applications like respiratory flow sensing; unsuitable for 50 kPa BP or pump control. | Choose MP3V5050GP when full 50 kPa span is required - no PCB change needed if footprint matches Case 98ASA99303D. |
Compared with MPX5050GP, MP3V5050GP delivers improved accuracy and wider temperature compensation; compared with MP3V5010GP, it provides five times higher pressure range while retaining identical interface and layout compatibility.

FAQ
What is the pressure type and range supported by the MP3V5050GP?
The MP3V5050GP is a gauge pressure sensor with a full-scale range of 0 to 50 kPa. It measures pressure relative to ambient atmospheric pressure using a single port (P1 side) with barbed connection. This range corresponds to approximately 0–7.25 psi and is validated for use in blood pressure monitoring and fluid-level detection where precise low-to-mid range pressure resolution is required. The MP3V5050GP does not support differential or absolute pressure configurations.
Does the MP3V5050GP require external components to operate correctly?
Yes, the MP3V5050GP requires external decoupling capacitors per datasheet Figure 5: a 1.0 µF bulk capacitor and a 470 pF ceramic capacitor between VS and GND. These components stabilize the supply rail and suppress noise that would otherwise degrade the 54 mV/kPa analog output. No external op-amps or ADC drivers are needed - the MP3V5050GP drives MCU ADC inputs directly when proper decoupling is implemented.
How is temperature compensation implemented in the MP3V5050GP?
The MP3V5050GP features fully integrated on-chip temperature compensation covering −40 °C to +125 °C. Compensation is achieved through proprietary thin-film resistor networks and bipolar circuitry that dynamically adjust offset and span across temperature. Unlike external thermistor-based methods, this approach eliminates calibration overhead and ensures ±2.5% VFSS accuracy over 0–85 °C without firmware intervention. The MP3V5050GP's transfer function remains VOUT = VS × (0.018 × P + 0.04) across its compensated range.
What is the correct orientation for mounting the MP3V5050GP in a system?
The MP3V5050GP must be mounted with the P1 side (identified as "side with port attached" per Case 98ASA99303D documentation) exposed to the measured pressure source. The P1 side contains fluorosilicone gel protecting the die and wire bonds - it is the only side rated for media contact. The P2 side (unported, lead-frame side) must remain sealed from pressure and environmental exposure. Incorrect orientation causes zero-pressure offset shift and potential long-term reliability failure.
Can the MP3V5050GP be used with a 5 V supply?
No, the MP3V5050GP is specified only for 2.7–3.3 VDC supply operation. Exceeding 3.3 V violates maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. Its ratiometric output scales linearly with supply voltage - at 3.3 V, full-scale output reaches ~3.17 V, exceeding most 3.3 V ADC reference rails. For 5 V systems, a dedicated 3.3 V LDO regulator with low noise and high PSRR must supply the MP3V5050GP; direct 5 V connection is not permitted.
