The MPXA4250AC6U is a single-port Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor for engine control is designed to sense absolute air pressure within the intake manifold. This measurement can be used to compute the amount of fuel required for each cylinder. The MPX4250A series piezoresistive transducer is a state-of-the-art monolithic silicon pressure sensor designed for a wide range of applications, particularly those employing a microcontroller or microprocessor with A/D inputs. This transducer combines advanced micromachining techniques, thin-film metallization and bipolar processing to provide an accurate, high-level analogue output signal that is proportional to the applied pressure. The small form factor and high reliability of on-chip integration make the NXP sensor a logical and economical choice for the automotive system engineer.
