Product details
Overview
MPX2053DP from NXP Semiconductors is a silicon piezoresistive differential pressure sensor with 50 kPa full-scale range, ratiometric voltage output, and on-chip temperature compensation over 0 °C to 85 °C. It delivers highly linear output (±0.6% VFSS linearity), low offset (±1.0 mV), and fast response (1.0 ms), used in medical diagnostics and pump/motor controllers where precise low-pressure sensing is required.
For engineers reviewing the MPX2053DP datasheet, MPX2053DP pinout, MPX2053DP application, or MPX2053DP equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin definitions for Case 1351-01, real-world application mappings, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The MPX2053DP integrates a monolithic silicon diaphragm with laser-trimmed strain gauges and thin-film resistor networks for precision span and offset calibration. Its ratiometric output scales directly with supply voltage (10–16 Vdc), enabling stable analog interfacing without external reference.
It operates as a differential pressure transducer with P1 > P2 configuration, using silicone gel isolation to transmit pressure while protecting die and wire bonds. On-chip temperature compensation minimizes span drift (±2.0% VFSS) and offset drift (±1.0 mV) across 0 °C to 85 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Full-Scale Pressure | 0–50 kPa differential range; supports non-invasive blood pressure and level indicator designs requiring sub-atmospheric resolution. |
| Output Voltage Span | 38.5–41.5 mV at 10 Vdc supply; enables direct ADC input with ≥12-bit resolution for 0.1 kPa effective resolution. |
| Supply Voltage | 10–16 Vdc; ratiometric behavior ensures output scaling matches excitation, simplifying power rail design. |
| Linearity Error | ±0.6% of full-scale span (VFSS); end-point fit method ensures worst-case error budgeting for safety-critical medical use. |
| Temperature Compensation | Validated over 0 °C to 85 °C; eliminates need for external thermistor compensation in portable diagnostic devices. |
| Response Time | 1.0 ms (10%–90%); suitable for dynamic pressure monitoring in robotics and motor control feedback loops. |
| Overpressure Rating | 200 kPa; provides 4× safety margin against transient spikes in pump/motor controller applications. |
Pinout & Package
MPX2053DP uses the Small Outline Package (SOP) Case 1351-01 - an 8-pin surface-mount package with pressure port on one side and part marking identifying the P1 (pressure) side. Pins 5–8 are unconnected terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for output and supply return; must be low-impedance to minimize common-mode noise in medical signal chains. |
| 2 | +VOUT | Positive differential output terminal; outputs voltage proportional to P1–P2 pressure difference relative to GND. |
| 3 | VS | Power supply input; accepts 10–16 Vdc and sets full-scale output magnitude via ratiometric scaling. |
| 4 | –VOUT | Negative differential output terminal; completes Wheatstone bridge output path; referenced to GND for instrumentation amplifier input. |
| 5–8 | n.a. | No internal connection; electrically isolated and may be left floating or tied to ground for mechanical stability per layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Differential pressure sensing | Enables bidirectional pressure measurement (P1 > P2 or vacuum on P2) without absolute reference, ideal for closed-loop fluid control. |
| Laser-trimmed calibration | Eliminates post-assembly trimming; guarantees factory-set span/offset within ±1.0 mV offset and ±0.6% VFSS linearity. |
| On-chip temperature compensation | Reduces system-level thermal drift compensation effort; maintains accuracy without external thermistors or digital correction algorithms. |
| Silicone gel isolation | Protects die and wire bonds from moisture and particulates while transmitting pressure; validated for dry clean air media compatibility. |
| Ratiometric output | Allows direct interface with ratiometric ADCs or microcontroller ADC references tied to VS, removing need for precision voltage references. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar differential pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPX2053D | Unibody Package (Case 344-15), 4-pin, stainless steel cap; identical electrical specs and temperature compensation. | Requires through-hole or modified SMT reflow due to metal cap; better suited for high-vibration environments like motor housings. | Select MPX2053D when mechanical ruggedness outweighs PCB space constraints and automated assembly compatibility. |
| MPXM2053DT1 | MPAK Package (Case 1320-02), 4-pin, tape-and-reel; same 50 kPa range and ratiometric output but different port geometry. | Optimized for high-volume automated placement; lacks the marked P1 side identification of MPX2053DP, requiring orientation verification during assembly. | Choose MPXM2053DT1 for cost-sensitive, high-throughput production where consistent pick-and-place alignment is ensured. |
Compared with MPX2053DP, MPX2053D offers superior mechanical durability in harsh environments but requires manual handling or custom tooling, while MPXM2053DT1 enables faster automated assembly at the expense of visual port orientation confirmation - all three share identical core sensing performance and temperature compensation architecture.

FAQ
What is the pressure port configuration of the MPX2053DP?
The MPX2053DP is a differential pressure sensor with two isolated ports: P1 (pressure side) and P2 (vacuum/reference side). Per Table 8 in the datasheet, the P1 side is identified by the side with part marking on the Case 1351-01 package. Operation requires P1 > P2 for positive output polarity, and the device is not rated for absolute or gauge-only configurations without external reference plumbing.
Does the MPX2053DP require external temperature compensation?
No, the MPX2053DP does not require external temperature compensation. It features on-chip temperature compensation validated over 0 °C to 85 °C, with specified TCVFSS (±2.0% VFSS) and TCVoff (±1.0 mV) performance. This integrated compensation eliminates the need for external thermistors or digital correction algorithms in most medical and industrial applications.
What is the maximum supply voltage for the MPX2053DP?
The MPX2053DP has a maximum supply voltage of 16 Vdc, as defined in Table 6 (Maximum Ratings). Operating above this limit risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range is 10–16 Vdc; operation below 10 Vdc reduces full-scale output proportionally and may degrade signal-to-noise ratio in low-voltage systems.
Can the MPX2053DP be used with dry nitrogen or other gases besides air?
The MPX2053DP is characterized and qualified for use with dry clean air. Use with other media-including dry nitrogen-may affect long-term reliability and output stability. NXP explicitly states that media other than dry clean air "may have adverse effects on sensor performance and long term reliability." Consult NXP Application Note AN3728 before deploying MPX2053DP with alternate gases.
How is the MPX2053DP calibrated at the factory?
The MPX2053DP undergoes dynamic laser trimming during manufacturing to calibrate both full-scale span and offset, as well as temperature coefficients. This process ensures initial accuracy without requiring user calibration: offset is trimmed to ≤±1.0 mV and full-scale span to 38.5–41.5 mV at 10 Vdc, with linearity held to ±0.6% VFSS using end-point straight-line fitting.
