Product details
Overview
MPXV5004G6U from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale) is a monolithic silicon piezoresistive gauge pressure sensor with ratiometric analog output, 0–3.92 kPa full-scale range, ±2.5% accuracy with autozero over 10 °C to 60 °C, and integrated temperature compensation. It delivers a linear voltage output proportional to applied pressure and is designed for microcontroller-based liquid level and differential pressure sensing in consumer and medical systems.
For engineers reviewing the MPXV5004G6U datasheet, MPXV5004G6U pinout, MPXV5004G6U application, or MPXV5004G6U equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-pin SOP package, 5 V supply requirement, 0.75–1.25 V offset, 3.0 V full-scale span at 3 kPa, and fluorosilicone-gel media isolation for long-term stability in humid environments.
Technical Context
The MPXV5004G6U integrates a shear-stress strain gauge, on-chip temperature compensation circuitry, and signal conditioning onto a single die. Its transfer function is VOUT = VS × [(0.2 × P) + 0.2], where P is pressure in kPa and VS = 5.0 VDC - making output fully ratiometric and immune to supply drift.
It uses a stainless steel cap and thermoplastic (PPS) case (Case 98ASB17756C), with fluorosilicone gel isolating the die and wire bonds from environmental exposure while transmitting pressure to the silicon diaphragm. Operation is specified for dry air media only; other media require factory validation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pressure Range | 0–3.92 kPa (0–400 mm H₂O); defines maximum measurable gauge pressure before saturation. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 VDC; ratiometric operation ensures output scaling remains stable across this range. |
| Full-Scale Span | 3.0 V at 3 kPa (typical); enables direct interface to 3.3 V or 5 V ADCs without external amplification. |
| Offset Voltage | 0.75–1.25 V at zero pressure; provides headroom above ground for single-supply A/D conversion. |
| Accuracy | ±2.5% VFSS with autozero (10–60 °C); error budget includes linearity, TcSpan, TcOffset, and hysteresis. |
| Operating Temp | 0–85 °C ambient; compensated performance guaranteed 10–60 °C, enabling use in washing machines and respiratory devices. |
| Package | 8-pin small outline package (SOP), surface mount, Case 98ASB17756C; 10.54 × 10.54 × 5.33 mm footprint. |
Pinout & Package
MPXV5004G6U uses an 8-pin SOP surface-mount package (Case 98ASB17756C) with stainless steel pressure port on the P1 side and fluorosilicone gel encapsulation for environmental protection. Pin 1 is identified by a notch or chamfered corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Internal connection; must remain unconnected to avoid mechanical stress or calibration shift. |
| 2 | VS | 5 V power input; supplies both sensing element and on-chip signal conditioning circuitry. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference; requires low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into VOUT. |
| 4 | VOUT | Ratiometric analog output (0.75–3.92 V); directly interfaces to 10-bit+ microcontroller ADCs. |
| 5–8 | DNC | Internal device connections; no external routing permitted per datasheet specification. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip temperature compensation | Eliminates need for external thermistor networks or software correction over 10–60 °C operating range. |
| Fluorosilicone gel isolation | Protects bond wires and die from moisture and contaminants while maintaining pressure transmission fidelity. |
| Ratiometric output | Output scales linearly with supply voltage, removing sensitivity to VS drift in battery-powered or unregulated systems. |
| Autozero-compatible architecture | Enables field calibration by storing zero-pressure output; required to achieve ±2.5% accuracy in end equipment. |
| Dry-air media qualification | Validated for long-term reliability with clean, dry air; alternative media require factory consultation and testing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar gauge pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPVZ5004G6U | Same package (98ASB17756C), identical pinout, but features media-resistant fluorosilicone gel and stainless steel cap optimized for harsher environments. | Preferred for applications exposed to condensation, cleaning agents, or non-dry-air media requiring extended reliability validation. | Select MPVZ5004G6U when long-term stability in humid or chemically active environments is critical; MPXV5004G6U is optimized for cost-sensitive dry-air use cases. |
| MPX5050GP | Higher full-scale range (50 kPa), different 6-pin SIP package, no autozero support, ±2.5% accuracy only at 25 °C (not over temperature). | Suitable for HVAC static pressure or higher-range industrial monitoring, not for sub-4 kPa precision applications like respiratory flow. | Choose MPX5050GP only if pressure range exceeds 4 kPa and temperature-compensated accuracy over 10–60 °C is not required. |
Compared with MPXV5004G6U, MPVZ5004G6U offers enhanced environmental robustness at identical pinout and signal behavior, while MPX5050GP trades low-range accuracy and temperature compensation for higher pressure capability and simpler packaging - neither is pin-compatible nor drop-in replaceable.

FAQ
What is the pressure range and output behavior of the MPXV5004G6U?
The MPXV5004G6U has a gauge pressure range of 0–3.92 kPa (0–400 mm H₂O) and produces a ratiometric analog output from 0.75 V to 3.92 V at 5 V supply. Its transfer function is VOUT = VS × [(0.2 × P) + 0.2], where P is pressure in kPa. The MPXV5004G6U output saturates outside the rated range and is calibrated for dry air media only.
Does the MPXV5004G6U require external temperature compensation?
No, the MPXV5004G6U includes on-chip temperature compensation circuitry that maintains accuracy over 10 °C to 60 °C without external components. This eliminates the need for thermistors or software correction algorithms. However, the MPXV5004G6U accuracy specification of ±2.5% VFSS assumes autozero is performed at system startup or during maintenance cycles.
Can the MPXV5004G6U be used with media other than dry air?
The MPXV5004G6U is qualified and characterized for use with dry air only. Other media - including water vapor, cleaning solvents, or medical gases - may degrade long-term reliability or alter calibration. NXP provides internal media tolerance test data upon request; the MPXV5004G6U should not be deployed with unqualified media without factory validation.
What is the significance of "autozero" for the MPXV5004G6U?
Autozero for the MPXV5004G6U refers to storing the zero-pressure output voltage (typically ~1.0 V) and subtracting it from subsequent readings to cancel mechanical stress and mounting-induced offset shifts. This process is essential to achieve the ±2.5% accuracy specification over temperature; without autozero, accuracy degrades to ±6.25% VFSS across 10–60 °C.
Is the MPXV5004G6U pin-compatible with other MPxx5004 series variants?
Yes, the MPXV5004G6U shares identical pinout and electrical interface with all 8-pin SOP variants in the MPxx5004 family, including MPVZ5004G6U and MPXV5004GC6U. However, differences in package construction (e.g., gel type, cap material) and media rating mean mechanical interchangeability does not guarantee functional equivalence in all environments.
