Product details
Overview
MPXH6115AC6T1 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 thin-film temperature compensation. It delivers 4.7 V typical output at 115 kPa, ±1.5% full-scale accuracy over 0 °C to 85 °C, and operates from 4.75–5.25 V supply - used in engine MAP sensing, industrial barometric monitoring, and weather station pressure acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the MPXH6115AC6T1 datasheet, MPXH6115AC6T1 pinout, MPXH6115AC6T1 application, or MPXH6115AC6T1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 15–115 kPa absolute pressure range, ratiometric 5 V operation, SSOP-8 super small outline package, and integrated temperature compensation from –40 °C to +125 °C.
Technical Context
The MPXH6115AC6T1 integrates a micromachined silicon diaphragm with piezoresistive elements, thin-film metallization, and bipolar analog circuitry to generate a high-level analog voltage output proportional to absolute pressure. Its sealed vacuum reference cavity enables true absolute pressure measurement independent of ambient atmospheric variation.
On-chip temperature compensation uses resistor networks and bipolar amplifier topology to correct offset and span drift across –40 °C to +125 °C. The device is ratiometric: output scales linearly with supply voltage, simplifying ADC interfacing in microcontroller-based systems without external voltage references.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 15–115 kPa absolute - covers manifold absolute pressure (MAP), barometric, and low-range industrial vacuum applications. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V DC - ratiometric operation ensures output scaling matches supply, eliminating need for precision voltage reference. |
| Full-Scale Output | 4.633–4.768 V at 115 kPa and 5.0 V supply - provides >4.5 V swing for robust noise margin into 12-bit+ ADCs. |
| Accuracy | ±1.5% of full-scale span (VFSS) over 0 °C to 85 °C - includes linearity, hysteresis, TcOffset, and TcSpan errors per datasheet spec. |
| Response Time | 1.0 ms (10% to 90%) - supports dynamic pressure monitoring in fast-cycling combustion or HVAC control loops. |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial environments without external thermal shielding. |
| Sensitivity | 45.0 mV/kPa - enables direct interpretation of output voltage as pressure without calibration lookup tables. |
Pinout & Package

FAQ
What is the pressure reference type of the MPXH6115AC6T1?
The MPXH6115AC6T1 is an absolute pressure sensor with a sealed vacuum reference cavity. Its output voltage corresponds to pressure measured relative to perfect vacuum - not ambient atmospheric pressure or a second port. This makes MPXH6115AC6T1 ideal for barometric and manifold absolute pressure (MAP) applications where reference stability is critical.
Does the MPXH6115AC6T1 require external calibration for typical use?
No, the MPXH6115AC6T1 includes factory-trimmed on-chip temperature compensation and calibration. Its ±1.5% full-scale accuracy over 0 °C to 85 °C is achieved without external resistors, op amps, or software correction - enabling direct connection to a microcontroller ADC. System-level calibration is optional for applications demanding <1% error.
What is the meaning of "C" in MPXH6115AC6T1?
The "C" in MPXH6115AC6T1 denotes fluorosilicone gel encapsulation over the die and wire bonds. This protective layer isolates the silicon from moisture and common automotive media while allowing pressure transmission to the diaphragm - distinguishing it from non-gel variants like MPXH6115A6T1 and enhancing long-term reliability in humid environments.
Can the MPXH6115AC6T1 operate from a 3.3 V supply?
No - the MPXH6115AC6T1 is specified only for 4.75–5.25 V DC operation. Its internal bipolar op amp circuitry and piezoresistive bridge require ≥4.75 V to achieve full 0.133–4.768 V output swing and maintain ±1.5% accuracy. Using 3.3 V will result in saturation, reduced span, and unverified performance outside datasheet limits.
What package type does MPXH6115AC6T1 use, and what are its key mechanical features?
The MPXH6115AC6T1 uses the super small outline package (SSOP-8), case number 98ARH99089A: 8-pin, 1.27 mm pitch, 9.83 mm × 3.81 mm body size, thermoplastic PPS housing. It features a chamfered corner for pin 1 identification and is optimized for reflow soldering with self-aligning footprint geometry per Freescale's recommended land pattern.
