Product details
Overview
MPXV6115VC6T1 from Freescale is a monolithic, signal-conditioned, gauge pressure sensor with piezoresistive sensing element, on-chip temperature compensation, and ratiometric analog output. It measures vacuum pressure from –115 kPa to 0 kPa (gauge), delivers 4.6 V typical full-scale output at 5 V supply, and maintains ±1.5% accuracy across 0–85 °C - used in brake booster and vacuum pump monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the MPXV6115VC6T1 datasheet, MPXV6115VC6T1 pinout, MPXV6115VC6T1 application, or MPXV6115VC6T1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed operating parameters, and real-world application mapping for automotive and industrial vacuum sensing designs.
Technical Context
The MPXV6115VC6T1 integrates a silicon micromachined diaphragm with thin-film resistor networks and bipolar op-amp circuitry to generate a high-level analog voltage output proportional to applied vacuum pressure. Its transfer function is defined as VOUT = VS × (0.007652 × P + 0.92), where P is pressure in kPa and VS is supply voltage.
On-chip temperature compensation operates across –40 to +125 °C, with error bands bounded by ±1.725 kPa over –115 to 0 kPa and ±1.5% VFSS accuracy from 0 to 85 °C. The device uses fluorosilicone gel isolation and is qualified for dry air media only.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MPXV6115VC6T1 uses Case 98ASB17756C: an 8-pin small outline package (SOP), surface-mount, thermoplastic housing with 2.54 mm lead pitch and 12.70 mm × 10.79 mm footprint. Pin 1 identified by notch or chamfered corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DNC | Internal connection; must remain unconnected - floating or grounded causes calibration shift. |
| 2 | VS | Positive supply input (4.75–5.25 V); powers internal amplifier and compensation circuitry. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference; requires low-impedance return path to minimize noise coupling into VOUT. |
| 4 | VOUT | Ratiometric analog output (0.92×VS to 4.6×VS); directly interfaces with ADC inputs or instrumentation amplifiers. |
| 5–8 | DNC | All internal connections; no external routing permitted - solder mask coverage recommended. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar gauge vacuum pressure sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPXV6115V6T1 | Same die, identical electrical specs, same Case 98ASB17756C package - differs only in device marking and tape/reel packaging format. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in same PCB layouts and firmware. | Select MPXV6115V6T1 if requiring current-production availability - MPXV6115VC6T1 is obsolete per Rev. 4.0 datasheet. |
| MPXV7002DP | Differential output (0–25 kPa range), dual analog outputs, wider temp range (–40 to +150 °C), but lower sensitivity (15 mV/kPa). | Requires differential ADC or external instrumentation amp; unsuitable for single-ended vacuum-to-atmosphere measurement. | Choose only if differential pressure measurement is required - not a drop-in replacement for MPXV6115VC6T1's gauge vacuum role. |
Compared with MPXV6115VC6T1, MPXV6115V6T1 offers identical performance and pin compatibility with active supply chain support, while MPXV7002DP serves distinct differential-sensing use cases and demands hardware redesign.

FAQ
Is MPXV6115VC6T1 still in production?
No, MPXV6115VC6T1 is obsolete per Freescale Document Number MPXV6115V Rev. 4.0 (September 2015), which explicitly states "Deleted obsolete device MPXV6115VC6T1." However, Aetrix Electronics maintains traceable legacy inventory for design continuity and repair programs. For new designs, MPXV6115V6T1 is the recommended active replacement with identical specifications and package.
What is the correct pinout configuration for MPXV6115VC6T1?
The MPXV6115VC6T1 uses an 8-pin SOP package (Case 98ASB17756C) with pin 1 identified by a notch or chamfered corner. Only pins 2 (VS), 3 (GND), and 4 (VOUT) are functional; pins 1 and 5–8 are DNC (do not connect). Connecting DNC pins risks calibration shift or output instability - they must remain unconnected and covered with solder mask.
Can MPXV6115VC6T1 measure absolute pressure?
No, MPXV6115VC6T1 is a gauge pressure sensor referenced to ambient atmospheric pressure via its vented port P2. It measures vacuum pressure from –115 kPa to 0 kPa relative to atmosphere. It is not sealed for absolute pressure measurement - attempting absolute use results in incorrect output scaling and violates the device's qualification for dry air media only.
What media compatibility does MPXV6115VC6T1 support?
MPXV6115VC6T1 is qualified exclusively for dry air as the pressure medium. The fluorosilicone gel isolation and silicon diaphragm are not rated for exposure to moisture, oil, fuel vapor, or corrosive gases. Using other media may cause irreversible performance degradation or long-term reliability failure. Contact NXP (ex-Freescale) for media compatibility testing data before deployment in non-dry-air environments.
Does MPXV6115VC6T1 require external calibration?
No, MPXV6115VC6T1 features factory-calibrated, on-chip temperature compensation and signal conditioning. Its ±1.5% VFSS accuracy over 0–85 °C and ratiometric output eliminate the need for system-level calibration or external temperature sensing. However, final application validation - including PCB layout, grounding, and ADC reference stability - remains the responsibility of the end designer per Freescale's datasheet disclaimer.
