Absolute pressure sensor for board-mount applications
The NXP MPXHZ6116A6T1 is a piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor in the MPXHZ6116A series, designed for board-mount applications where a clean analog voltage output is needed. It covers an operating pressure range of 2.9 PSI to 16.68 PSI (20 kPa to 115 kPa) and delivers a ratiometric output from 0.399 V to 4.645 V, proportional to the applied pressure. Temperature compensation is built in, and the ±1.5% accuracy holds across the full -40°C to 125°C range, making it suitable for under-hood automotive or industrial environments where the sensor sees wide thermal swings.
Package and mounting
Housed in a wide-body package with gull-wing leads for surface-mount assembly. The supplier device package is listed as 8-SSOP, so the footprint is standard SOIC-8 wide.
Lifecycle and sourcing
NXP lists the MPXHZ6116A6T1 as Active, so no last-time-buy or obsolescence risk for current production. For dual-sourcing, the MPXHZ6116A series includes other pressure-range variants; verify pin compatibility if cross-referencing within the family.
