MPX5010 vs MPX2010

jasonhaedt — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 22:22:30 GMT

Dear Freescale,

I currently use MPX2010 in a dual port configuration. I am looking to move to the MPX5010 with the integrated amplifier but had a few questions:

1.) Is the sensor the same in the MPX2010 and the MPX5010?

2.) Are there any application recommendations for interfacing to the MPX5010?

Sincerely,

Jason

Hi Jason Haedt,

Answering to your questions:

It is a very similar sensor with the difference (that you already noticed) that the MPX5010 is on-chip amplified, but both have the same pressure range and general functionality.

It is actually very simple to interface the MPX5010 since it’s already amplified, temperature compensated and calibrated, so the only think you need to add are just a few capacitors (as seen on Figure 3 of the datasheet) and the signal goes directly to your mcu’s ADC.

Have a great day,
Jose Reyes
