MPXV5004GP

MPXV5004GP is a MEMS absolute-pressure sensor from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale). It integrates a micro-machined sensing element with signal conditioning to provide a linear, ratiometric analog voltage proportional to the sensed absolute pressure in a low-pressure range (a few kPa). The GP package is a compact surface-mount device designed for small, low-cost applications. It operates from a single supply (typically 3–5.5 V), draws only a few hundred microamps, and outputs a voltage that scales with supply, simplifying MCU interfacing. No external reference is required; Vcc, GND, and Output are the main connections. Suitable for barometric sensing, altitude and HVAC systems, flow monitoring, and other consumer/industrial uses where size and cost matter. For exact pressure range, sensitivity, pinout, and electrical characteristics, refer to the latest NXP datasheet.

Equivalent products are other MEMS pressure sensors with the same specs: analog voltage output, 5 V supply, and a 0–4/0–5 kPa full‑scale. Direct cross‑references include NXP MPXV5000/5004GP variants. Other manufacturers’ 0–5 kPa analog sensors can be found via distributor cross‑references (e.g., Digi‑Key, Mouser) by filtering for pressure range, analog output, 5 V supply, and similar packaging.

Here are the key features of MPXV5004GP (concise):
- MEMS absolute pressure sensor with integrated signal conditioning
- Full-scale range: 0–4 kPa (40 mbar)
- Analog voltage output proportional to pressure; ratiometric to Vcc
- Supply voltage: typically 5 V (recommended 4.5–5.5 V)
- Low power consumption and fast response
- Temperature compensated and factory calibrated for stable, linear output
- Compact package suitable for small/handheld and automotive-related applications

Pin count: 4 pins.
Function: MPXV5004GP is a MEMS absolute pressure sensor with analog output. Pins typically are Vcc, GND, and Vout (analog voltage proportional to pressure); the fourth pin is No Connect. The pressure port is accessible via a top/side port on the package, not via a separate pin.

- Manufacturer: NXP Semiconductors.
- What kind of company: A Dutch multinational semiconductor company that designs and manufactures microelectronics and embedded solutions (originating from Philips Semiconductors).
