Product details
Overview
MPXV5050VC6T1 from NXP Semiconductors is a monolithic, signal-conditioned silicon pressure sensor for vacuum/gauge pressure measurement in the -50 to 0 kPa range. It delivers a ratiometric 0.1–4.6 V analog output at 5.0 V supply, features on-chip temperature compensation over -40°C to +125°C, and achieves ±2.5% full-scale accuracy across 0°C to 85°C - ideal for vacuum pump monitoring and microcontroller-based pressure feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the MPXV5050VC6T1 datasheet, MPXV5050VC6T1 pinout, MPXV5050VC6T1 application, or MPXV5050VC6T1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its gauge pressure range, ratiometric output behavior, thermoplastic (PPS) surface-mount package (Case 482A-01), and integrated thin-film resistor networks enabling high-output signal conditioning without external op-amps.
Technical Context
The MPXV5050VC6T1 integrates a piezoresistive silicon diaphragm with bipolar op-amp circuitry and thin-film metallization to deliver a calibrated, temperature-compensated analog voltage output proportional to applied vacuum/gauge pressure. Its patented silicon shear-stress strain gauge enables stable performance under thermal cycling and mechanical stress.
It operates ratiometrically with a 4.75–5.25 V supply, draws ≤10 mA, and exhibits 1.0 ms response time with 20 ms warm-up time. The transfer function VOUT = VS × (0.018 × P + 0.92) ± (PE × TM × 0.018 × VS) defines output linearity and temperature-dependent error bands across its operating range.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXV5004GP | Wider range (-100 to 0 kPa), lower sensitivity (45 mV/kPa), same package and pinout | Better suited for deeper vacuum monitoring but requires higher-gain signal conditioning | Select MPXV5004GP only when extended range outweighs reduced output resolution |
| MPXV7002DP | Differential output (0–3.3 V), dual-port, ±2 kPa range, different pinout and calibration | Designed for bidirectional pressure difference sensing, not vacuum/gauge | Choose MPXV7002DP only for differential pressure applications with separate P1/P2 ports |
Compared with MPXV5050VC6T1, MPXV5004GP offers broader vacuum range at lower output resolution, while MPXV7002DP serves fundamentally different differential-sensing use cases - neither is pin-compatible, and both require PCB layout and firmware changes.

FAQ
What pressure range does the MPXV5050VC6T1 support?
The MPXV5050VC6T1 supports a vacuum/gauge pressure range of -50 to 0 kPa (equivalent to -7.25 to 0 psi). This range is optimized for suction-side sensing applications such as vacuum pump monitoring and medical suction devices. The sensor outputs a ratiometric analog voltage that scales linearly within this span, with defined minimum and maximum output voltages of 0.1 V and 4.6 V respectively at 5.0 V supply. Operation outside this range causes output saturation.
Is the MPXV5050VC6T1 compatible with 3.3 V microcontrollers?
The MPXV5050VC6T1 is specified for 4.75–5.25 V supply and is not rated for direct 3.3 V operation. While it may power up at lower voltages, its accuracy, output span, and temperature compensation are guaranteed only within the 5 V ±250 mV range. For 3.3 V systems, use an LDO or charge pump to supply 5.0 V to MPXV5050VC6T1, or select a 3.3 V–compatible alternative like the NPA-100 series. The MPXV5050VC6T1's ratiometric output remains valid only when VS stays within its specified window.
Does the MPXV5050VC6T1 require external components for basic operation?
No, the MPXV5050VC6T1 requires no external resistors or capacitors for basic operation. Its integrated signal conditioning and temperature compensation eliminate the need for external op-amps or trimming networks. A 1.0 µF bulk decoupling capacitor near the VS pin and a 0.01 µF ceramic capacitor at the output are recommended per the datasheet for noise suppression and stability, but are not mandatory for functional operation. The MPXV5050VC6T1 drives typical ADC inputs directly without buffering.
What is the meaning of "DNC" pins on the MPXV5050VC6T1?
"DNC" stands for "Do Not Connect." Pins 1 and 5–8 on the MPXV5050VC6T1 have no internal electrical connection and must remain unconnected - neither tied to ground nor pulled high/low. Connecting them risks parasitic coupling or mechanical stress on bond wires. The functional interface uses only pins 2 (VS), 3 (GND), and 4 (VOUT). This pin assignment is fixed for the Case 482A-01 package and applies exclusively to the MPXV5050VC6T1 variant.
Can the MPXV5050VC6T1 be used with media other than dry air?
The MPXV5050VC6T1 is qualified and characterized using dry air as the pressure medium. Use with other gases or liquids may degrade long-term reliability or shift calibration due to chemical interaction with the fluorosilicone gel encapsulant or stainless steel cap. NXP explicitly states that non-dry-air media may adversely affect performance. If alternate media are required, consult NXP's factory for compatibility testing data - the MPXV5050VC6T1 is not rated for aggressive or condensing fluids without validation.
