Pressure Sensor Breakout

This is a carrier board that includes the MPXV5050GP 0-50kPa (0-7.25psi) sensor mounted and ready to use.

Includes power filtering and output smoothing network as suggested in AN1646 application notes.

Great for tank depth measurements and other low pressure sensing requirements. With the full scale pressure reading you can measure tank depth of approximately 200" of water.

The MPXx5050 series piezoresistive transducer is a state-of-the-art monolithic silicon pressure sensor designed for a wide range of applications, but particularly those employing a microcontroller or microprocessor with A/D inputs. This patented, single element transducer combines advanced micromachining techniques, thin-film metallization, and bipolar processing to provide an accurate, high level analog output signal that is proportional to the applied pressure.
