General description
The FXPS7400A4 high-performance, high-precision absolute pressure sensor consists of
a compact capacitive micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) device coupled with a
digital integrated circuit (IC) producing a fully calibrated analog output.
This sensor is ideal for many automotive applications such as manifold air pressure
(MAP), turbo MAP, comfort seating and other applications requiring operating absolute
pressure ranges up to 400 kPa.
The sensing element is based on NXP's high precision capacitive pressure cell
technology. The architecture benefits from redundant pressure transducers as an
expanded quality measure. It delivers highly accurate ratiometric analog readings of
absolute pressure while operating from either a 3.3 V or 5.0 V power supply.
The sensor operates over a pressure range of 20 kPa to 400 kPa and over a wide
temperature range of –40 ºC to 130 ºC
The sensor comes in an industry-leading 4 mm x 4 mm x 1.98 mm, restriction of
hazardous substances (RoHS) compliant, high-power quad flat no-lead (HQFN)
[1]
package suitable for small printed circuit board (PCB) integration. Its AEC-Q100
compliance, high accuracy, reliable performance and high media resistivity make it ideal
for use in automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.

Description
Pins 2, 5, 8, 9, 10 and 11 are test pins and must be left unterminated in the
application.
Pin 3 is required to be tied to V
CC
for device operation.
Pins 4 and 15 are the supply return nodes and are connected internally to the die
attach pad (pin 17).
Pins 6, 7 and 14 are not internally connected and can be left unconnected in the
application.
Pin 12 provides a ratiometric analog output proportional to the absolute pressure
sensor data.
Pins 1, 13 and 16 supply power to the device. An external capacitor must be
connected between these pins and V
SS
, as shown in the application diagram.
Pin 17 is the die attach flag and must be connected to V
SS
.

Functional description
7.1 Voltage regulators
The device derives its internal supply voltage from the V
CC
and V
SS
pins. An external
filter capacitor is required for V
CC
, as shown in
Figure 12.
A reference generator provides a reference voltage for the ΣΔ converter.
