Overview

The MPXH6400AC6T1 is an absolute pressure sensor capable of measuring between 20 kPa and 400 kPa. It provides a high-level analog output voltage ranging from 0.2 V to 4.8 V, making it directly compatible with microcontroller ADC inputs without additional amplification. The device is fully calibrated and temperature compensated from -40 C to +125 C.

Why Choose This Part

This sensor offers a high accuracy of +/-1.5% and is specifically designed for high-temperature stability. Its integrated signal conditioning reduces component count and PCB footprint, while the 8-SOIC surface mount package with a top-side port simplifies mechanical integration with tubing.

Applications

Engine Management Systems
Used as a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor to help the ECU calculate air density and determine fuel metering.
Industrial Process Control
Monitoring absolute pressure in pneumatic systems and automated machinery within a 400 kPa range.
Weather Stations
High-accuracy barometric pressure monitoring in rugged outdoor environments due to its durable thermoplastic package.

Getting Started

Connect the VCC pin to a stable 5.0V supply and the GND pin to your system ground. The Vout pin can be connected directly to a 10-bit or 12-bit ADC on a microcontroller like an STM32 or Arduino. For best results, use a 1.0uF decoupling capacitor near the supply pins and a 470pF capacitor on the output for noise filtering.
