Product details
Overview
MPXHZ6116A6U from Freescale Semiconductor is an absolute pressure sensor with 20–115 kPa range, ratiometric 5 V supply operation, ±1.5% full-scale accuracy over 0 °C to 85 °C, and on-chip temperature compensation from –40 °C to +125 °C. It delivers a high-level analog output (0.335–4.2 V) proportional to applied pressure and is packaged in a durable PPS SSOP for automotive and industrial environments.
For engineers reviewing the MPXHZ6116A6U datasheet, MPXHZ6116A6U pinout, MPXHZ6116A6U application, or MPXHZ6116A6U equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, validated pin functions, confirmed package mapping to Case 98ARH99066A, and real-world use cases in engine manifold, HVAC, and medical pneumatic systems.
Technical Context
The MPXHZ6116A6U integrates a piezoresistive sensing element with bipolar op-amp signal conditioning and thin-film resistor networks on a monolithic die. Its architecture enables ratiometric output scaling relative to VS, with built-in temperature compensation across –40 °C to +125 °C and calibrated offset/sensitivity at 25 °C.
It operates as a single-port absolute-pressure transducer with sealed vacuum reference, requiring no external amplification or ADC reference buffering when interfaced to microcontroller A/D inputs. The gel-coated die and stainless steel cap ensure media resistance against humidity and common automotive fluids.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 20–115 kPa absolute - supports intake manifold and barometric sensing in automotive and portable medical devices. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 Vdc - ratiometric operation ensures stable output scaling with MCU VREF if both share same 5 V rail. |
| Full-Scale Span | Typ. 4.2 Vdc - enables direct connection to 5 V-tolerant 10–12-bit ADCs without gain stage. |
| Offset Voltage | 0.335–0.463 Vdc at min pressure - defines zero-pressure baseline for calibration-critical applications like leak detection. |
| Accuracy | ±1.5% VFSS over 0 °C to 85 °C - includes linearity, hysteresis, TcSpan, and TcOffset error contributions per datasheet Section 2.2. |
| Sensitivity | Typ. 44.2 mV/kPa - allows precise pressure resolution of ~0.23 kPa per LSB on a 12-bit ADC with 5 V reference. |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive placement and industrial ambient exposure. |
Pinout & Package
MPXHZ6116A6U uses Case 98ARH99066A: an 8-lead super small outline package (SSOP) with thermoplastic (PPS) body, chamfered corner marking Pin 1, and internal gel die coat for humidity/media resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Do not connect - internal device connection; chamfered corner identifies Pin 1 location. |
| 2 | VS | Voltage supply input - must be decoupled with 100 nF capacitor per Figure 4 to meet spec. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - shared return path for supply and output; requires low-impedance PCB trace. |
| 4 | VOUT | Analog output voltage - ratiometric, 0.335–4.2 Vdc range; connects directly to MCU ADC input. |
| 5–8 | DNC | Do not connect - internal device connections; floating pins must remain unconnected per Table 1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip temperature compensation | Validated over –40 °C to +125 °C - eliminates need for external thermistor or digital correction in embedded systems. |
| Ratiometric output | Output scales linearly with VS - enables robust operation with shared 5 V rail between sensor and MCU ADC reference. |
| Media-resistant packaging | Gel die coat + stainless steel cap + PPS body - certified for high-humidity and automotive fluid exposure per datasheet Section 3. |
| High output signal level | 4.2 V full-scale span at 5 V supply - reduces susceptibility to noise and avoids external amplification in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Monolithic integration | Piezoresistive element + op-amps + thin-film resistors on single die - improves long-term stability and reduces calibration drift vs. hybrid assemblies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXH6115A6U | Same package and pinout; narrower 15–115 kPa range; ±1.5% accuracy over 0 °C to 85 °C; lower full-scale span (3.9 V typ). | Optimized for higher-end pressure coverage but lacks low-end sensitivity below 20 kPa. | Select MPXH6115A6U only if system minimum pressure exceeds 15 kPa and tighter low-end resolution is not required. |
| MPX5700AP | 700 kPa range; SO-8 package; ±2.0% accuracy; no on-chip temp compensation beyond 0–85 °C; requires external compensation. | Designed for high-pressure industrial hydraulics, not low-range automotive or medical use. | Choose MPX5700AP only for applications above 115 kPa; avoid for MPXHZ6116A6U's 20–115 kPa domain due to range mismatch and reduced accuracy. |
Compared with MPXH6115A6U and MPX5700AP, the MPXHZ6116A6U uniquely balances 20–115 kPa coverage, ±1.5% VFSS accuracy, full –40 °C to +125 °C compensation, and SSOP footprint-making it optimal for automotive MAP, portable medical, and precision HVAC applications where low-end resolution and thermal robustness are essential.

FAQ
What is the pressure range and type supported by the MPXHZ6116A6U?
The MPXHZ6116A6U is an absolute pressure sensor with a specified range of 20 to 115 kPa. It features a sealed vacuum reference cavity, enabling true absolute pressure measurement independent of ambient atmospheric variation. This makes the MPXHZ6116A6U suitable for barometric sensing, engine manifold pressure monitoring, and other applications where referenced-to-vacuum measurement is required.
Does the MPXHZ6116A6U require external signal conditioning or amplification?
No, the MPXHZ6116A6U does not require external signal conditioning. It integrates bipolar op-amp circuitry and thin-film resistor networks to deliver a high-level ratiometric analog output (0.335–4.2 V) directly compatible with standard 5 V microcontroller ADC inputs. The MPXHZ6116A6U datasheet confirms full signal conditioning-including offset, span, and temperature compensation-is performed on-chip.
What is the operating temperature range and accuracy specification for the MPXHZ6116A6U?
The MPXHZ6116A6U operates from –40 °C to +125 °C and is temperature-compensated across that full range. Its accuracy is specified as ±1.5% of full-scale span (VFSS) over 0 °C to 85 °C, incorporating linearity, hysteresis, TcSpan, and TcOffset errors. This accuracy value is validated per Freescale's test methodology in Section 2.2 of the MPXHZ6116A datasheet Rev. 2.1.
Which package and pin configuration does the MPXHZ6116A6U use?
The MPXHZ6116A6U uses Case 98ARH99066A: an 8-lead super small outline package (SSOP) with thermoplastic (PPS) body and chamfered corner marking Pin 1. Only Pins 2 (VS), 3 (GND), and 4 (VOUT) are functional; Pins 1 and 5–8 are DNC (do not connect) and must remain unconnected in layout per Table 1 of the official datasheet.
Can the MPXHZ6116A6U be used with media other than air?
The MPXHZ6116A6U's qualification and performance specifications are based on air as the pressure medium. While its gel die coat, stainless steel cap, and PPS package provide resistance to high humidity and common automotive fluids, Freescale explicitly states that non-air media may adversely affect long-term reliability and performance. For non-air applications, users must contact NXP (formerly Freescale) for validated media compatibility data before deployment; the MPXHZ6116A6U should not be assumed compatible without factory confirmation.
