Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal type of the GZP6897A2.5KPW50K sensor?

The sensor provides an analog voltage output that is ratiometric to the supply voltage. This means the output signal scales linearly with the applied pressure and changes proportionally if the 5V supply voltage varies, simplifying the calibration process when interfacing with an ADC on a microcontroller or PLC.

What is the recommended wiring and power supply configuration?

Use a stable, regulated 5V DC power supply connected to the VCC and GND pins. The analog output pin should be connected directly to an ADC input on your microcontroller. Ensure clean power and consider adding a bypass capacitor near the sensor's power pins for optimal noise immunity and signal stability.

Can this sensor measure negative (vacuum) pressure?

Yes, as a gauge pressure sensor with a range of -2.5 kPa to +2.5 kPa, it can measure both positive and negative pressure differentials relative to atmospheric pressure. A reading of 0V (or mid-scale voltage) typically corresponds to ambient atmospheric pressure.

Is this sensor suitable for liquid pressure measurement?

No, this MEMS sensor is designed for measuring air or non-corrosive, dry gas pressures. The sensing diaphragm is not isolated for direct liquid contact. Using it with liquids may damage the sensor and invalidate its calibration.
