MPXV6115VC6U Übersicht

The NXP MPXV6115VC6U is a single-port, vacuum-gauge integrated silicon pressure sensor that measures pressures from -16.68 PSI (-115 kPa) up to 0 PSI (0 kPa) and provides a ratiometric analog output of 0.2 V to 4.6 V from a 5 V supply. Housed in an 8-SMD, gull-wing, top-port surface-mount module, the device integrates on-chip bipolar op-amp signal conditioning, a thin-film resistor network for calibration, and temperature compensation to deliver a high-level, factory-trimmed output.

A pressure sensor transducer is a semiconductor device that converts an applied pressure - mechanical force per unit area - into a proportional electrical signal, typically via a piezoresistive strain-gauge network diffused into a silicon diaphragm. The MPXV6115VC6U belongs to the broader piezoresistive transducer family (piezoresistive sensor -> pressure sensor -> MEMS sensor -> transducer) and is widely used in system-level designs where a clean, conditioned analog rail directly interfaces with a microcontroller ADC.

Key features include a measurement range of -16.68 PSI to 0 PSI (-115 kPa to 0 kPa), a ratiometric 0.2 V to 4.6 V output, a typical accuracy of 1.5% across the compensated temperature range, and a 5 V single-supply operation. The 3.17 mm (0.13 in) vertical top port accepts a vacuum tube directly, eliminating hose-to-board adapters in many respiratory and analytical instrument designs.

The MPXV6115VC6U uses a piezoresistive Wheatstone-bridge strain-gauge network diffused into a chemically-etched silicon diaphragm; deflection under vacuum unbalances the bridge, and the on-chip bipolar op-amp network amplifies and temperature-trims the differential signal to a single-ended 0.2 V to 4.6 V output. The 8-SMD gull-wing package is a surface-mount variant of the legacy SOP-8 with extended leads for improved solder-joint reliability, and the device is qualified for -40 C to +125 C operation.

Typical applications include medical respiratory and CPAP instruments, HVAC vacuum monitoring, industrial vacuum gauges, and analytical instruments such as COVID-19 diagnostic consumables. The vacuum-only range and ratiometric output make the part particularly well suited to single-supply battery-powered systems that need a calibrated, temperature-compensated vacuum reading without external signal conditioning.

When designing with this device, route the analog output trace away from switching converters and add an RC filter at the ADC input; the small output swing (0.2 V to 4.6 V) sits well within the common-mode range of most 5 V SAR ADCs but is sensitive to ground noise. The top port must remain unobstructed for accurate readings.

Typische Anwendungen

MPXV6115VC6U ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Medical Respiratory / CPAP Instruments, HVAC Vacuum Monitoring, COVID-19 Diagnostic Consumables, Industrial Vacuum Gauges, Analytical Instrumentation, Portable Battery-Operated Vacuum Tools.

💊

Medical Respiratory / CPAP Instruments

The MPXV6115VC6U measures patient-circuit vacuum in CPAP and BiPAP machines where inspiratory pressure must be monitored below atmospheric. The -115 kPa to 0 kPa range covers the full vacuum spectrum in airway pressure sensing, and the ratiometric 0.2 V to 4.6 V output at 5 V supply interfaces directly with the on-board SAR ADC without external signal conditioning. The on-chip bipolar op-amp network and thin-film calibration deliver a calibrated 1.5% accuracy across 0 C to 85 C, eliminating per-unit trimming in production. The 8-SMD top-port package allows the pressure tube to mount directly to the sensor, simplifying the pneumatic path.

🏭

HVAC Vacuum Monitoring

In HVAC service equipment and refrigeration vacuum gauges, the MPXV6115VC6U provides a continuous analog indication of system vacuum during pump-down and evacuation. The -115 kPa to 0 kPa range matches the typical 500 micron (67 Pa) to atmospheric vacuum pull-down range, and the 0.2 V to 4.6 V output drives a panel meter or ADC directly. The 5 V ratiometric output is insensitive to supply drift when read with the same ADC reference, and the surface mount 8-SMD package keeps the bill-of-materials cost low in service-tool designs.

💊

COVID-19 Diagnostic Consumables

The MPXV6115VC6U was specifically adopted by medical-device manufacturers during the COVID-19 response for vacuum-pressure monitoring in diagnostic cartridges and respiratory analyzers. Per the NXP community thread, the part was chosen over the MPXV4115VC6U equivalent due to supply availability and identical specifications. The calibrated, temperature-compensated output removes the need for per-device calibration in single-use consumables, and the small 8-SMD footprint enables compact cartridge designs.

🏭

Industrial Vacuum Gauges

For handheld and benchtop industrial vacuum gauges used in laboratory and process-equipment service, the MPXV6115VC6U provides a low-cost, calibrated analog front-end. The 0.2 V to 4.6 V ratiometric output at 5 V supply can drive a 3.5-digit panel meter directly or feed an MCU ADC for digital readout. The -40 C to +125 C operating range covers harsh factory-floor temperatures, while the 1.5% accuracy is sufficient for service-grade rather than metrology-grade vacuum measurement.

🔬

Analytical Instrumentation

In mass-spectrometer inlet systems, vacuum concentrators, and lyophilizers, the MPXV6115VC6U provides a continuous vacuum feedback signal for process control. The -115 kPa to 0 kPa range is compatible with rough-pump and turbomolecular-pump operation, and the calibrated output interfaces directly with PID controllers without signal-conditioning overhead. The on-chip temperature compensation from 0 C to 85 C maintains accuracy across typical laboratory ambient conditions.

⚡

Portable Battery-Operated Vacuum Tools

Battery-powered vacuum cleaners, robotic pool cleaners, and portable pneumatic tools benefit from the MPXV6115VC6U's low 5 V supply current and ratiometric output. The 8-SMD gull-wing top-port package simplifies the pneumatic interface, while the calibrated accuracy allows the MCU to display vacuum level directly without per-unit calibration. The small footprint keeps the BOM compact for portable-form-factor products.

Both share the same -115 kPa to 0 kPa range, 0.2 V to 4.6 V output, and 8-SMD package. Note that NXP has marked the MPXV4115VC6U as 'not recommended for new designs', so the MPXV6115VC6U remains the preferred long-term choice.
What is the difference between MPXV6115VC6U and MPXV7007DP?
The MPXV6115VC6U is a vacuum-only sensor measuring -115 kPa to 0 kPa, while the MPXV7007DP is a differential sensor measuring -7 kPa to +7 kPa. They are not drop-in replacements because the pressure ranges differ significantly (16x ratio). For vacuum-only applications, choose the MPXV6115VC6U; for low-pressure differential flow sensing, choose the MPXV7007DP.
Where can I download the MPXV6115VC6U datasheet PDF?
The official MPXV6115VC6U datasheet (document MPXV6115V6 covering MPXV6115V6 and MPXV6115VC6 variants) is available as a free PDF download from the STMicroelectronics website at https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/mpxv6115v6.pdf. The 8-page document includes electrical characteristics, mechanical drawings, application information, and qualification data. An 8-page datasheet is also mirrored on alldatasheet.com as the legacy Freescale Semiconductor version.
Where do I find the MPXV6115VC6U pinout?
The MPXV6115VC6U pinout is shown on page 2 of the manufacturer datasheet at https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/mpxv6115v6.pdf. The 8-SMD gull-wing package assigns pin 1 to VCC (5 V), pin 2 to GND, pin 3 to VOUT (ratiometric analog), with the remaining pins used for the port, NC, or test points depending on the variant. Top-port orientation is critical for airflow direction.
Is the MPXV6115VC6U pin-compatible with MPXV5100GP?
No, the MPXV6115VC6U and MPXV5100GP are NOT pin-compatible even though both are 8-pin SMD pressure sensors. The MPXV6115VC6U uses an 8-SMD gull-wing top-port package measuring vacuum pressure, while the MPXV5100GP uses a different 8-pin SOP with a different pin assignment and a 0 to 100 kPa positive-gauge measurement range. PCB redesign is required to swap between them.
What supply voltage does the MPXV6115VC6U require?
The MPXV6115VC6U operates from a single 5 V DC supply with a typical current consumption below 10 mA. The output is ratiometric to VCC, meaning the 0.2 V to 4.6 V output scales linearly with supply voltage - at 3.3 V supply the swing becomes approximately 0.13 V to 3.04 V. A low-noise LDO such as the TPS7A4533 is recommended for the supply rail to avoid ADC noise coupling.
Is the MPXV6115VC6U RoHS compliant?
Yes, the MPXV6115VC6U is RoHS compliant per the manufacturer product page and is supplied in lead-free (Pb-free) packaging suitable for reflow soldering at 260 C peak temperature per JEDEC J-STD-020.

What is the accuracy of the MPXV6115VC6U at room temperature?
The MPXV6115VC6U provides a typical accuracy of 1.5% of full-scale span across the compensated temperature range of 0 C to 85 C. The 0.2 V to 4.6 V output swing across -115 kPa to 0 kPa translates to approximately 38.3 mV per kPa. The output is ratiometric to VCC, so any supply drift is automatically cancelled by ADC readings taken with the same VCC as the ADC reference.
Is the MPXV6115VC6U suitable for medical ventilator designs?
Yes, the MPXV6115VC6U is widely used in medical respiratory and ventilator designs because of its calibrated -115 kPa to 0 kPa vacuum range, on-chip temperature compensation, and ratiometric analog output that interfaces directly with a 5 V SAR ADC. According to the NXP community thread, the part was specifically designed into COVID-19 diagnostic consumables during the 2020-2021 allocation period. Designers should still validate biocompatibility and sterilization compatibility for their specific use case.
What is the best cross-brand equivalent for the MPXV6115VC6U?
The closest cross-brand equivalent for the MPXV6115VC6U is the Bosch BMP280 (but note it is a board-mount absolute pressure sensor with I2C/SPI digital output, not analog). For true drop-in analog cross-brand equivalents in the same 8-SMD package, the NXP MPX6115 family (which is the same die rebranded) and the Infineon KP21x family are the most widely cited alternatives, although exact voltage output and port style differences require PCB validation.

Auswahlhilfe

Choose the MPXV6115VC6U when you need a vacuum-only (-115 to 0 kPa) pressure sensor with an analog output in a small surface-mount top-port package. This part is ideal for medical respiratory equipment, HVAC vacuum monitoring, COVID-19 diagnostic instruments, and industrial vacuum gauges. Choose MPXV6115VC6T1 for the same die in tape-and-reel packaging for high-volume SMT assembly. Choose MPXV4115VC6U as a drop-in equivalent only if the MPXV6115VC6U is unavailable (note: the MPXV4115VC6U is marked NRND). Choose MPXV6115VC6U-Q for automotive-qualified applications. Choose MPX6115DP only if you need positive-gauge (0 to 115 kPa) instead of vacuum - it is NOT pin-compatible for the pressure range. For digital I2C/SPI output, consider Bosch BMP280 as a cross-brand alternative, though PCB redesign is required.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale

  • On-chip temperature compensation and calibration (vs. Discrete strain-gauge + op-amp solution)
  • Top-port vertical tube simplifies pneumatic interface (vs. Side-port MPX5100DP family)
  • Ratiometric analog output interfaces directly with 5 V SAR ADC (vs. Digital-output Bosch BMP280)

Designhinweise

The MPXV6115VC6U is ratiometric: the 0.2 V to 4.6 V output scales linearly with VCC. Use the same 5 V LDO that powers the MCU ADC to drive the sensor, and use VCC as the ADC reference, to eliminate supply-noise coupling. A low-noise LDO such as TPS7A4533 is recommended; switching converters should be filtered with a ferrite bead and 10 uF ceramic cap to prevent switching ripple from coupling into the analog output.

Route the analog output (VOUT, pin 3) trace away from switching converters, digital buses, and high-current traces. Place a 1 nF ceramic capacitor close to the VOUT pin and a 100 nF capacitor close to VCC to filter high-frequency noise. The top-port tube should mount vertically with adequate clearance above the PCB; do not cover the port with conformal coating or potting compound, which would block pressure transmission.

Do not apply positive pressure above 0 PSI to the MPXV6115VC6U - the part is vacuum-only and may be damaged by overpressure in the positive direction. The exact maximum overpressure rating was not present in the verified data [DATA_NEEDED: maximum overpressure]. Do not confuse this part with the MPX6115DP (positive-gauge 0 to 115 kPa), which has the same package but a different pressure range and pin assignment for the second port.
