Overview
The MPX2100DP is a silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor produced by NXP USA Inc. This device is part of the MPX2100 series, known for its high accuracy and linear voltage output directly proportional to the applied pressure. The sensor features a single, monolithic silicon diaphragm with integrated strain gauge and a thin-film resistor network, which is laser trimmed for precise span and offset calibration and temperature compensation. Although the MPX2100DP is currently obsolete and no longer manufactured, it remains a significant component in various industrial and medical applications due to its robust performance characteristics.
