Product details
Overview
MPXHZ6115AC6U from NXP (formerly Freescale) is a monolithic, signal-conditioned, absolute pressure sensor with integrated bipolar op amp and thin-film resistor networks. It delivers a ratiometric analog output (0.200 V to 4.700 V) over a 15–115 kPa range at 5.0 V supply, ±1.5% 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.
For engineers reviewing the MPXHZ6115AC6U datasheet, MPXHZ6115AC6U pinout, MPXHZ6115AC6U application, or MPXHZ6115AC6U equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package mapping, real-world use value, and validated alternative options for industrial, automotive, and environmental sensing designs.
Technical Context
The MPXHZ6115AC6U integrates a piezoresistive silicon diaphragm with on-chip temperature compensation and calibration circuitry. Its transfer function is VOUT = VS × (0.009 × P − 0.095), where VS = 5.0 V and P is absolute pressure in kPa - enabling direct ADC interfacing without external signal conditioning.
It uses fluorosilicone gel isolation to protect the die while transmitting pressure to the sealed vacuum-referenced sensing element. The device is qualified for media-resistant operation in high-humidity and common automotive environments, with offset stability of ±0.25% VFSS after 1000 pressure cycles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 15–115 kPa absolute - matches standard atmospheric and engine intake manifold pressure ranges. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.200 V to 4.700 V at VS = 5.0 V - provides >4.5 V full-scale span for high SNR ADC conversion. |
| Accuracy | ±1.5% VFSS over 0 °C to 85 °C - enables reliable MAP reading without system-level recalibration. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V DC - ratiometric design ensures output scaling tracks supply variation, simplifying power rail design. |
| Response Time | 1.0 ms (10%–90%) - supports dynamic pressure monitoring in fast-transient engine cycles. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive deployment and industrial ambient extremes. |
| Package Type | Super small outline package (Case 98ARH99089A) - 8-pin surface-mount footprint optimized for space-constrained PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
MPXHZ6115AC6U uses a thermoplastic (PPS) super small outline package (Case 98ARH99089A), 8-pin, surface-mount, with chamfered corner marking Pin 1. The package is media-resistant and designed for reflow soldering.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Do not connect - no internal connection; must remain floating or unconnected per datasheet. |
| 2 | VS | 5.0 V supply input - powers internal op amp and sensing circuitry; requires local 100 nF decoupling. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be tied to clean system AGND plane to minimize offset drift. |
| 4 | VOUT | Analog output voltage - ratiometric, 0.2–4.7 V range; connects directly to 10-bit+ ADC input. |
| 5–8 | DNC | All unconnected - no internal bond wires; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip temperature compensation | Calibrated from –40 °C to +125 °C - eliminates need for external thermistor or software correction in MAP systems. |
| Fluorosilicone gel isolation | Protects die and wire bonds from humidity and automotive fluids - enables long-term reliability in under-hood environments. |
| Ratiometric output | Output scales linearly with supply voltage - allows shared 5 V rail with microcontroller, reducing BOM count and noise sources. |
| High sensitivity | 45 mV/kPa typical - yields ~4.5 V span across full 100 kPa range, maximizing ADC resolution utilization. |
| Fast response time | 1.0 ms - captures transient pressure events in combustion cycle timing and turbocharger control loops. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXH6115AC6U | Same series, identical pinout and electrical specs, but lacks media-resistant fluorosilicone gel coating. | Suitable for dry-air or controlled-environment applications only; not rated for high-humidity or automotive fluid exposure. | Select MPXH6115AC6U only when cost sensitivity outweighs environmental robustness requirements. |
| MPXA6115AC6U | Same pressure range and accuracy, but housed in larger small-outline package (Case 98ASB17757C); different footprint and thermal mass. | Requires PCB redesign due to 10.79 mm × 13.21 mm body vs. MPXHZ6115AC6U's 9.83 mm × 18.41 mm SSOP layout. | Choose MPXA6115AC6U only if board space permits larger package and legacy footprint compatibility is required. |

FAQ
What is the pressure reference type of the MPXHZ6115AC6U?
The MPXHZ6115AC6U is an absolute pressure sensor with a sealed vacuum reference cavity internal to the die. This means its output voltage corresponds to pressure measured relative to perfect vacuum - essential for manifold absolute pressure (MAP) and barometric applications where ambient or system-referenced measurements would introduce error. The MPXHZ6115AC6U maintains this reference integrity through fluorosilicone gel encapsulation and thermoplastic packaging.
Does the MPXHZ6115AC6U require external signal conditioning?
No, the MPXHZ6115AC6U does not require external signal conditioning. It integrates a bipolar op amp, thin-film resistor network, and on-chip temperature compensation to deliver a fully conditioned, ratiometric analog output (0.200–4.700 V) directly compatible with standard 10-bit or higher ADCs. The MPXHZ6115AC6U only requires a 5 V supply, local 100 nF decoupling capacitor, and proper grounding - eliminating external amplifiers, filters, or calibration circuitry.
What is the meaning of "C6U" in MPXHZ6115AC6U?
The "C6U" suffix in MPXHZ6115AC6U denotes the specific package variant: "C" indicates the media-resistant fluorosilicone gel version, "6" specifies tape-and-reel packaging (though "C6U" is shipped in rails per ordering info), and "U" identifies the super small outline package (Case 98ARH99089A). This distinguishes it from non-gel variants like MPXH6115AC6U and larger-body versions such as MPXA6115AC6U - all sharing the same core sensing die but differing in environmental protection and mechanical form factor.
Can the MPXHZ6115AC6U operate outside its specified 15–115 kPa range?
The MPXHZ6115AC6U is rated for operation strictly within 15–115 kPa absolute pressure. While the sensor may produce output beyond this range, the datasheet confirms output saturation occurs outside these limits - and maximum pressure rating is 400 kPa, beyond which permanent damage may occur. For reliable measurement, the MPXHZ6115AC6U must be applied only within its specified range; using it at <15 kPa or >115 kPa invalidates accuracy, linearity, and temperature compensation guarantees.
Is the MPXHZ6115AC6U RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the MPXHZ6115AC6U is RoHS compliant and lead-free. As a Freescale/NXP product manufactured post-2006 and documented in Rev. 7.3 (2015) of the MPXA6115A datasheet, it adheres to EU Directive 2011/65/EU and subsequent amendments. The thermoplastic (PPS) package and leadframe materials meet JEDEC J-STD-609 Category 3 marking requirements, and the device carries the "Pb-Free" designation in official NXP documentation and distributor listings.
