Product details
Overview
MPXAZ6115APT1 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale) is an absolute pressure sensor IC with monolithic silicon piezoresistive sensing element, on-chip bipolar op amp signal conditioning, and integrated temperature compensation. It delivers a ratiometric analog output (0.200 V to 4.700 V at 5.0 V supply) over a 15–115 kPa range, ±1.5% full-scale accuracy from 0 °C to 85 °C, and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C. It is used in engine manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensing and barometric measurement in weather stations.
For engineers reviewing the MPXAZ6115APT1 datasheet, MPXAZ6115APT1 pinout, MPXAZ6115APT1 application, or MPXAZ6115APT1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world use cases, and confirmed alternative parts for industrial and automotive pressure-sensing designs requiring media-resistant packaging and stable analog output.
Technical Context
The MPXAZ6115APT1 integrates a micromachined silicon diaphragm with thin-film resistor networks and bipolar op amp circuitry to generate a high-level analog voltage output proportional to absolute pressure. Its transfer function is VOUT = VS × (0.009 × P − 0.095), where VS = 5.0 V ± 0.25 V and P is pressure in kPa.
On-chip temperature compensation corrects offset and span drift across –40 °C to +125 °C using calibrated resistor networks; fluorosilicone gel encapsulation isolates the die while transmitting pressure, enabling resistance to high humidity and common automotive fluids. The device exhibits 1.0 ms response time and 20 ms warm-up time.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 15–115 kPa absolute - supports MAP sensing and barometric applications without external amplification or scaling. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.200 V to 4.700 V at VS = 5.0 V - ratiometric output enables direct ADC interfacing with microcontrollers. |
| Accuracy | ±1.5% of full-scale span (VFSS) over 0 °C to 85 °C - includes linearity, temperature hysteresis, pressure hysteresis, TcSpan, and TcOffset errors. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V DC - tight excitation tolerance ensures stable output scaling and minimal ratiometric error. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive environments and industrial control enclosures. |
| Response Time | 1.0 ms (10% to 90%) - suitable for dynamic pressure monitoring such as intake manifold transients. |
| Offset Stability | ±0.25% VFSS after 1000 pressure/temperature cycles - confirms long-term reliability in cyclic duty applications. |
Pinout & Package
MPXAZ6115APT1 uses the durable thermoplastic (PPS) small outline package Case 98ASA99303D, with 8-pin leadframe and chamfered corner marking Pin 1. The package is surface-mount compatible and optimized for reflow soldering.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Do not connect - electrically isolated; serves only as mechanical pin 1 identifier via chamfered corner. |
| 2 | VS | Voltage supply input - accepts 4.75–5.25 V DC; powers internal op amp and sensing bridge. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into VOUT. |
| 4 | VOUT | Analog output - delivers ratiometric voltage proportional to absolute pressure; requires 100 nF decoupling capacitor per datasheet. |
| 5–8 | DNC | Do not connect - all four pins are electrically floating and must remain unconnected in PCB layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Media-resistant gel encapsulation | Fluorosilicone gel protects die and wire bonds from humidity and automotive fluids while transmitting pressure accurately. |
| On-chip temperature compensation | Calibrated resistor networks correct offset and span drift across –40 °C to +125 °C without external circuitry. |
| High-output analog interface | 4.5 V full-scale span eliminates need for external amplification when interfacing with 5 V ADCs or microcontrollers. |
| Ratiometric output architecture | VOUT scales linearly with VS, reducing sensitivity to supply rail variation and simplifying system-level calibration. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXH6115A6T1 | Super small outline package (Case 98ARH99066A); same 15–115 kPa range and ±1.5% accuracy but lacks media-resistant gel. | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs where environmental sealing is handled externally; unsuitable for direct exposure to automotive fluids. | Select when board-level conformal coating or housing provides media protection and footprint area is critical. |
| MPXV7002DP | Differential pressure sensor (0–2 kPa range); no absolute reference; requires external vacuum reference for absolute measurement. | Used in low-pressure airflow sensing (e.g., spirometry), not direct MAP or barometric replacement. | Choose only if differential measurement suffices and system design accommodates external reference plumbing. |
Compared with MPXH6115A6T1, MPXAZ6115APT1 offers superior media resistance for under-hood use but occupies larger PCB area; versus MPXV7002DP, it provides true absolute pressure output without external vacuum reference, simplifying system integration for barometric and MAP applications.

FAQ
What is the pressure range and output behavior of the MPXAZ6115APT1?
The MPXAZ6115APT1 measures absolute pressure from 15 kPa to 115 kPa and outputs a ratiometric analog voltage ranging from 0.200 V to 4.700 V at VS = 5.0 V. Its transfer function is VOUT = VS × (0.009 × P − 0.095), where P is pressure in kPa. This linear relationship allows direct interfacing with 5 V ADCs without external gain stages, and the output remains stable across its full operating temperature range of –40 °C to +125 °C.
Does the MPXAZ6115APT1 require external temperature compensation?
No, the MPXAZ6115APT1 includes fully integrated on-chip temperature compensation covering –40 °C to +125 °C. Calibration resistor networks correct both offset and full-scale span drift across temperature, eliminating the need for external thermistors or software compensation algorithms. This is confirmed in the datasheet Section 3 and reflected in the ±1.5% VFSS accuracy specification over 0 °C to 85 °C.
What does "DNC" mean for pins 1 and 5–8 on the MPXAZ6115APT1?
"DNC" stands for "Do Not Connect." Pins 1 and 5–8 on the MPXAZ6115APT1 are electrically isolated and serve no functional role in the circuit. Pin 1 is marked by a chamfered corner for orientation only. All DNC pins must remain unconnected in PCB layout - no routing, grounding, or pull-up/pull-down components - to avoid interference with internal biasing and ensure specified performance of the MPXAZ6115APT1.
Is the MPXAZ6115APT1 suitable for automotive engine manifold pressure sensing?
Yes, the MPXAZ6115APT1 is explicitly qualified for engine manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensing. Its 15–115 kPa range covers typical intake manifold pressures, its ±1.5% VFSS accuracy meets OEM requirements, and its fluorosilicone gel encapsulation resists oil mist, fuel vapor, and high humidity. The device operates continuously from –40 °C to +125 °C, satisfying under-hood thermal demands, and is referenced in the datasheet's "Typical applications" section for MAP use.
What package type and footprint does the MPXAZ6115APT1 use?
The MPXAZ6115APT1 uses the small outline package Case 98ASA99303D - an 8-pin thermoplastic (PPS) surface-mount package with chamfered corner pin 1 identification. Its recommended footprint follows standard SOP land patterns with 2.54 mm pitch; exact dimensions and solder mask guidance are provided in Freescale document 98ASA99303D. This package supports automated reflow assembly and is distinct from the SSOP variants used by MPXH-series parts.
