Product details
Overview
MPVZ4006G6T1 from Freescale Semiconductor is a fully integrated, on-chip signal-conditioned, temperature-compensated and factory-calibrated silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor with 0–6 kPa full-scale range, 0.3–4.6 V ratiometric analog output, ±2.46% VFSS accuracy (with auto-zero), and surface-mount small-outline package (Case 482-01). It delivers stable differential pressure sensing for liquid level and respiratory equipment where low-pressure resolution and thermal stability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MPVZ4006G6T1 datasheet, MPVZ4006G6T1 pinout, MPVZ4006G6T1 application, or MPVZ4006G6T1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world use scenarios, and confirmed alternative parts for appliance, healthcare, and industrial embedded systems requiring calibrated analog pressure transduction.
Technical Context
The MPVZ4006G6T1 integrates a micromachined silicon diaphragm with thin-film strain gauges, on-die bipolar signal conditioning, two-stage gain amplification, and temperature compensation circuitry-all monolithically fabricated. Its transfer function is Vout = VS × [(0.1533 × P) + 0.053], enabling direct A/D interfacing with Freescale microcontrollers without external signal conditioning.
It operates exclusively in differential or gauge configuration (P1 > P2), requires dry air as pressure media, and relies on post-installation auto-zeroing to achieve ±2.46% VFSS accuracy over +10°C to +60°C. The stainless steel cap identifies the pressure (P1) side, and gel die coat isolates wire bonds while transmitting pressure to the sensing element.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar pressure transduction applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXV5004DP | 0–4 kPa range, dual-port differential, 0.2–4.8 V output, ±2.5% accuracy, same Case 482-01 package | Lower full-scale range; better suited for ultra-low-pressure differential measurements (e.g., HVAC duct static pressure) | Select MPXV5004DP when system pressure never exceeds 4 kPa and dual-port symmetry is required. |
| MPXH6115A | 0–115 kPa range, 0.2–4.8 V output, ±1.5% accuracy, larger SOIC-8 package (Case 867B) | Higher pressure capability but reduced low-end resolution; not optimized for sub-10 kPa applications | Select MPXH6115A only if operating range extends beyond 6 kPa and board space allows larger footprint. |
Compared with MPVZ4006G6T1, MPXV5004DP offers tighter low-range resolution but sacrifices upper limit headroom, while MPXH6115A trades precision at 6 kPa for broader range and lower relative accuracy-making MPVZ4006G6T1 optimal for dedicated 0–6 kPa gauge sensing with minimal calibration overhead.

FAQ
What is the pressure media compatibility of the MPVZ4006G6T1?
The MPVZ4006G6T1 is qualified for use with dry air as the pressure media. Other media-including liquids, oils, or corrosive gases-may degrade long-term reliability or alter calibration. Freescale's internal qualification testing was performed exclusively with dry air; media-specific validation must be conducted by the end user or requested directly from NXP (formerly Freescale) for custom qualification data. The MPVZ4006G6T1 gel die coat provides environmental isolation but does not guarantee chemical compatibility beyond dry air.
Does the MPVZ4006G6T1 require external signal conditioning?
No, the MPVZ4006G6T1 does not require external signal conditioning. It integrates on-chip temperature compensation, gain stages, and calibration circuitry to deliver a ratiometric 0.3–4.6 V analog output directly compatible with standard 5 V microcontroller ADC inputs. The MPVZ4006G6T1 datasheet confirms full signal conditioning is monolithically implemented-only decoupling capacitors (1.0 μF and 0.01 μF) are recommended per Figure 3 for power supply filtering.
How is auto-zero implemented for the MPVZ4006G6T1?
Auto-zero for the MPVZ4006G6T1 is a system-level procedure-not an internal feature. It requires the host MCU to read the MPVZ4006G6T1 output voltage at zero differential pressure (P1 = P2) after mechanical mounting, store that value as the offset, and subtract it from subsequent readings. This step is mandatory to achieve the ±2.46% VFSS accuracy; without it, accuracy degrades to ±5.0% VFSS. The MPVZ4006G6T1 itself provides no auto-zero circuitry-it relies on external firmware implementation.
What is the meaning of "P1 > P2" in the MPVZ4006G6T1 specification?
"P1 > P2" defines the operational mode of the MPVZ4006G6T1 as a gauge or differential pressure sensor where P1 is the pressure side (identified by the stainless steel cap) and P2 is the reference (ambient or vacuum) side. The MPVZ4006G6T1 outputs a voltage proportional to the pressure difference (P1 − P2). Applying pressure to P2 or reversing the port orientation invalidates calibration and may cause measurement error or damage. The MPVZ4006G6T1 is not rated for absolute or vacuum-referenced operation.
Is the MPVZ4006G6T1 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the MPVZ4006G6T1 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free. The datasheet explicitly states: "RoHS-compliant and/or Pb-free versions of Freescale products have the functionality and electrical characteristics of their non-RoHS-compliant and/or non-Pb-free counterparts." The MPVZ4006G6T1 packaging (Case 482-01) meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for surface-mount reflow, and its tape-and-reel packaging (denoted by "T1") conforms to industry-standard RoHS handling and assembly protocols.
