MS79005
PRESSURE SENSOR DIE (0-0.5 BAR)
• 0 to 50 kPa range (500 mbar or 7.5 PSI)
• Absolute/differential pressure sensors
• RoHS-compatible & Pb-free1
DESCRIPTION
The sensor element of the MS79005 consists of a silicon micro-machined membrane. Implanted resistors make
use of the piezo-resistive effect to sense the membrane deflection and transform it in an electrical signal. This
sensor, which has outstanding linearity and span values, is available in various configurations. The absolute
pressure sensor employs a sealed vacuum reference cavity underneath the membrane. The Pyrex glass wafer
used for this sealing has a thickness of 0.2 mm (MS79005-A_0.2) or 0.5 mm (MS79005-A_0.5). Two gauge
versions available: one with a drilled Pyrex glass (MS79005-D) and the other without Pyrex glass (MS79005-S).
FEATURES
• Uncompensated pressure sensor die
• Output Span 150mV @ 5V
• Temperature Range -40°…+125°C
• Linearity 0.05% (typical)
• Very small Die Size 1.78 x 1.78mm (MS79005-A)
• Low Cost, High reliability
APPLICATION
• For absolute or differential pressure sensor systems
• Variometers
