Product details
Overview
MPXV4006DP from Freescale Semiconductor is a dual-port, monolithic silicon differential pressure sensor with on-chip signal conditioning, temperature compensation, and factory calibration. It delivers a ratiometric 0.2–4.7 V analog output across a 0–6 kPa range, operates from 4.75–5.25 V supply, consumes ≤10 mA, and maintains ±5.0% full-scale accuracy over 10°–60°C - ideal for medical airflow monitoring and HVAC differential pressure sensing.
For engineers reviewing the MPXV4006DP datasheet, MPXV4006DP pinout, MPXV4006DP application, or MPXV4006DP equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (Case 1351-01), confirmed pin functions, real-world use scenarios, and two validated alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The MPXV4006DP integrates a piezoresistive sensing element with thin-film temperature compensation circuitry and two-stage gain amplification in a single die. Its transfer function is Vout = VS × [(0.1533 × P) + 0.045] ± 5% VFSS, where VS is supply voltage and P is differential pressure in kPa.
It features dual pressure ports (P1 and P2) for true differential measurement, requires no external zeroing circuitry but mandates post-installation auto-zeroing to achieve specified accuracy, and is qualified for dry air media only - non-air media may degrade long-term reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 0 to 6 kPa - supports low-differential applications such as respiratory flow detection and filter clogging alarms. |
| Output Voltage | 0.2 to 4.7 V - ratiometric to supply voltage, enabling direct interface with 5 V ADCs without scaling. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V - tight tolerance ensures stable excitation for consistent sensitivity and offset performance. |
| Accuracy | ±5.0% VFSS - includes linearity, temperature hysteresis, pressure hysteresis, offset stability, TcSpan, and TcOffset over 10°–60°C. |
| Sensitivity | 766 mV/kPa - high gain enables precise resolution at low pressures without external amplification. |
| Operating Temp | −10° to +60°C - suitable for indoor industrial and consumer environments, not extended automotive or outdoor extremes. |
| Max Pressure | 24 kPa - provides 4× overpressure margin, protecting against transient spikes during system startup or fault conditions. |
Pinout & Package
MPXV4006DP uses Case 1351-01: small-outline surface-mount package with dual pressure ports and 8-pin configuration. Pins 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are internal no-connects; only pins 2 (VS), 3 (Gnd), and 4 (Vout) are externally accessible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | No Connect | Internal device connection - must remain unconnected; identified by notch in lead frame. |
| Pin 2 | Supply Voltage (VS) | 5 V ±0.25 V DC input - powers both sensing element and signal conditioning circuitry. |
| Pin 3 | Ground (Gnd) | Analog ground reference for signal chain - must be low-impedance and separated from digital ground. |
| Pin 4 | Output Voltage (Vout) | Ratiometric analog output - directly interfaces with microcontroller ADC inputs without level-shifting. |
| Pins 5–8 | No Connect | Internally bonded - no external routing or grounding permitted to avoid noise coupling or damage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-port differential sensing | Enables true ΔP measurement across filters, ducts, or respiratory circuits without reference chamber. |
| On-chip temperature compensation | Eliminates need for external thermistor networks or software correction algorithms over 10°–60°C. |
| Factory-calibrated offset and span | Reduces production test time - eliminates per-unit trim resistors or calibration firmware steps. |
| Fluorosilicone gel isolation | Protects wire bonds and die surface from moisture and particulates while transmitting pressure accurately. |
| Ratiometric output | Ensures measurement stability even with ±5% supply variation - critical for battery-powered or shared-rail systems. |
Applications

Use Value: ±5% VFSS accuracy and low offset drift (<0.43 V at zero pressure) support detection of <10 Pa/h leakage rates. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar differential pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXV5004DP | Wider 0–4 kPa range, higher 100 mV/kPa sensitivity, −40° to +125°C operating temp. | Supports wider industrial temperature ranges and lower-pressure resolution but lacks 6 kPa headroom. | Select when extended temp range or finer low-end resolution is required; verify port compatibility with existing manifold. |
| SDP31-125PA | 0–125 Pa range, digital I²C output, ±0.5% accuracy, integrated temperature sensor. | Designed for ultra-low-pressure medical devices (e.g., spirometers); incompatible with analog-only systems. | Choose for high-accuracy, low-power, digital-interface applications requiring sub-Pa resolution - not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with MPXV4006DP, MPXV5004DP offers broader temperature capability but narrower full-scale range, while SDP31-125PA delivers superior accuracy and digital convenience at the cost of analog compatibility and pressure range - selection depends on whether analog interface, 6 kPa headroom, or ultra-low-pressure resolution is prioritized.

FAQ
What is the pressure port configuration of the MPXV4006DP?
The MPXV4006DP features dual pressure ports (P1 and P2) in a side-port configuration within the Case 1351-01 package. Per Freescale's identification table, the Pressure (P1) side is identified by the part marking on the package surface, and it is designed for positive differential pressure operation where P1 > P2. This allows true differential measurement without requiring a sealed reference chamber.
Does the MPXV4006DP require external zeroing circuitry?
No, the MPXV4006DP does not require external zeroing circuitry because it includes on-chip temperature compensation and factory calibration. However, Freescale specifies that "autozeroing" - storing the zero-pressure output reading after mechanical installation and subtracting it during operation - is mandatory to achieve the stated ±5.0% VFSS accuracy. This software-based correction compensates for mounting-induced stress effects on the MPXV4006DP die.
What is the maximum supply current draw of the MPXV4006DP?
The MPXV4006DP draws a maximum of 10 mA under all operating conditions, including at full-scale pressure and across its entire temperature range (−10° to +60°C). This value is specified in Table 2 of the official datasheet and reflects total current consumption for both the piezoresistive sensing element and the integrated signal conditioning circuitry - critical for battery-powered or power-constrained MPXV4006DP designs.
Can the MPXV4006DP be used with media other than dry air?
No - the MPXV4006DP is qualified and characterized exclusively for use with dry air as the pressure medium. Freescale explicitly warns that other media may adversely affect long-term reliability and sensor performance due to chemical interaction with the fluorosilicone gel and silicon diaphragm. Media compatibility testing for non-air substances must be requested directly from NXP (formerly Freescale), and no alternate media tolerance is guaranteed for the MPXV4006DP without formal qualification.
What is the meaning of "ratiometric output" for the MPXV4006DP?
A ratiometric output means the MPXV4006DP's output voltage scales linearly with its supply voltage (VS). Specifically, Vout = VS × [(0.1533 × P) + 0.045], so if VS varies within its 4.75–5.25 V specification, the output proportionally adjusts - preserving measurement accuracy without requiring independent voltage references. This allows the MPXV4006DP to interface directly with microcontroller ADCs sharing the same supply rail, reducing system complexity and cost.
