Signal Conditioned, Temperature
Compensated and Calibrated
The MPX4115A series is designed to sense absolute air pressure in
altimeter or barometer (BAP) applications. Freescale's BAP sensor integrates
on-chip, bipolar op amp circuitry and thin film resistor networks to provide a
high level analog output signal and temperature compensation. The small form
factor and high reliability of on-chip integration makes the Freescale BAP
sensor a logical and economical choice for application designers.

Accuracy
(6)
(0 to 85°C)
6. Accuracy (error budget) consists of the following:
Linearity: Output deviation from a straight line relationship with pressure over the specified pressure range.
Temperature Hysteresis: Output deviation at any temperature within the operating temperature range, after the temperature is cycled to
and from the minimum or maximum operating temperature points, with zero differential pressure applied.
Pressure Hysteresis: Output deviation at any pressure within the specified range, when this pressure is cycled to and from the
minimum or maximum rated pressure, at 25°C.
TcSpan: Output deviation over the temperature range of 0 to 85°C, relative to 25°C.
TcOffset: Output deviation with minimum rated pressure applied, over the temperature range of 0 to 85°C, relative to 25°C.
Variation from Nominal: The variation from nominal values, for Offset or Full Scale Span, as a percent of V
FSS
, at 25°C.
