10 kPa Uncompensated

Silicon Pressure Sensors

The MPX10 and MPXV10GC series devices are silicon piezoresistive

pressure sensors providing 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

compensation and signal conditioning networks. Compensation techniques are

simplified because of the predictability of Freescale's single element strain gauge

design. Figure 1 shows a schematic of the internal circuitry on the stand-alone

pressure sensor chip.
