50 kPa Uncompensated

Silicon Pressure Sensors

The MPX53 series silicon piezoresistive pressure sensors provide a very

accurate and linear voltage output, directly proportional to the applied

pressure. These standard, low cost, uncompensated sensors permit

manufacturers to design and add their own external temperature

compensating and signal conditioning networks. Compensation techniques

are simplified because of the predictability of Freescale's single element

strain gauge design.

Features

• Low Cost

• Patented Silicon Shear Stress Strain Gauge Design

• Ratiometric to Supply Voltage

• Easy to Use Chip Carrier Package Options

• 60 mV Span (Typical)

• Differential and Gauge Options
