IFXKP229E3111XTMA1
Overview
The KP229E3111XTMA1 is a high-precision absolute pressure sensor designed for automotive manifold air pressure (MAP) applications and industrial control systems. It integrates a capacitive sensing element with a signal conditioning CMOS IC on a single chip, providing a ratiometric analog output proportional to the applied pressure. The sensor is AEC-Q100 qualified and features internal temperature compensation to maintain accuracy across a wide -40 C to 140 C operating range.
Why Choose This Part
This sensor offers exceptional accuracy of +/- 3.75 kPa over its full 20 kPa to 300 kPa range. It includes integrated safety features such as broken wire detection and output clamping to protect downstream ADCs. The PG-DSOF-8-16 package is optimized for surface-mount assembly in harsh automotive environments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To evaluate this sensor, connect the VDD pin to a stable 5V supply and the VOUT pin to a high-impedance ADC input on a microcontroller. Ensure a 100nF decoupling capacitor is placed close to the supply pins as recommended in the datasheet. Since the output is ratiometric, use the microcontroller supply as the ADC reference to minimize measurement errors caused by voltage fluctuations.
