Working Principle

Description

The MPX5010DP Pressure Sensor operates based on piezoresistive technology. This involves a monolithic silicon pressure sensor that converts pressure into an electrical signal. The sensor uses 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.
