MPXA4250AC6T1 - 20-250 kPa MAP Pressure Sensor, 5V | NXP
MPN: MPXA4250AC6T1 ✓ AktifMPXA4250AC6T1 Ringkasan
Manifold Absolute Pressure sensors are a class of piezoresistive transducers that measure the absolute pressure inside an engine's intake manifold. The absolute pressure reading, combined with intake air temperature, allows the ECU to compute air mass and determine the optimal fuel injector pulse width. Within the broader sensor hierarchy, a MAP sensor belongs to pressure sensors, which sit alongside temperature, motion, and position sensors as primary automotive powertrain feedback devices. The MPX/MPXA family from NXP pioneered on-chip signal conditioning, eliminating the external op-amp and temperature-compensation circuitry that earlier MAP designs required.
Key features include on-chip temperature compensation from -40 C to +125 C, factory calibration of offset and full-scale output, ratiometric analog output that tracks the supply voltage, and a robust 8-SMD gull-wing package rated for automotive underhood environments. The integrated signal path combines a piezoresistive Wheatstone bridge with a precision instrumentation amplifier, achieving better than +/- 1.5% FS accuracy across the full temperature range.
Typical applications include automotive engine control (gasoline and diesel), turbocharger boost sensing, motorcycle and small-engine fuel injection (EFI), and industrial pneumatic pressure monitoring. The top-side port accepts a 3.17 mm tube for direct manifold tap connection.
When designing with this device, decouple the Vcc pin with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the package. Add a 10 kohm pull-down on the output if the ECU ADC input is high-impedance, and route analog ground separately from digital ground to avoid ground-loop noise coupling into the pressure reading.

Automotive Engine Control (Gasoline/Diesel)
The MPXA4250AC6T1's 20-250 kPa absolute range and AEC-Q100 qualification make it ideal for Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensing in gasoline and diesel engine control units. Connected to the intake manifold via the top-side 3.17 mm port, it provides the ECU with real-time absolute pressure data that, combined with intake air temperature, computes air mass for optimal fuel injection pulse width.

Turbocharger Boost Sensing
For turbocharged engines producing up to ~1.4 bar of boost, the MPXA4250AC6T1's 250 kPa full-scale covers the operating envelope without saturating. The ratiometric 0.2-4.9 V output connects directly to ECU ADC inputs, and the on-chip temperature compensation maintains accuracy from cold-start to high-load boost conditions. Use this sensor on the charge pipe upstream of the throttle body.

Motorcycle and Small-Engine EFI
The MPXA4250AC6T1's compact 8-SMD footprint fits within space-constrained motorcycle ECU enclosures, and its top-side port accepts a standard 3 mm vacuum hose tap. The 5 V single-supply operation matches common motorcycle regulator outputs, while the AEC-Q100 rating ensures reliability under underhood thermal stress. The 0.2-4.9 V swing spans naturally-aspirated vacuum through small turbo boost.

Diferensiator Kunci
- Tape-and-reel packaging optimized for high-volume automotive assembly (vsMPXA4250AC6U)
- Higher overpressure margin for harsh transient environments (vsMPXH6250AC6U)
- On-chip signal conditioning eliminates external amplifier circuits (vsMPX4250A through-hole variant)
Catatan Desain
Decouple Vcc (pin 1) with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the package to suppress supply transients from the automotive 5 V rail. Add a bulk 10 uF tantalum or aluminum polymer capacitor on the ECU analog supply node. The MPXA4250AC6T1 draws approximately 7 mA typical; the regulator must source at least 15 mA peak under cold-start conditions. Per NXP application note, do not share the analog and digital ground returns - use a star-ground topology at the sensor GND pin.
Route the analog output trace away from high-current switching paths (injector drivers, ignition coils) with at least 5 mm of clearance. Use a guard ring tied to analog ground around the output trace if the ECU PCB has noisy digital regions. The output is ratiometric to Vcc, so the ADC reference should track the same 5 V rail to maintain calibration accuracy. A 10 kohm pull-down on Vout prevents the output from floating if the sensor loses supply.
Do not reverse the pressure port orientation - the top-side port must face the manifold vacuum source. Do not apply pressure exceeding the 250 kPa full-scale plus transient margin; the datasheet specifies maximum overpressure ratings that must be observed to avoid sensor element damage. Avoid contaminating the port with oil or moisture; if the medium is wet, install an inline hydrophobic filter. The sensor is calibrated at the factory - no external trim is required or should be attempted.
