KP236N6165
Analog Absolute Pressure Sensor
Product Description
1 Product Description
The KP236N6165 is a miniaturized Analog Barometric Air Pressure
Sensor IC based on a capacitive principle. It is surface micromachined
with a monolithic integrated signal conditioning circuit implemented in
BiCMOS technology.
The sensor converts a pressure into an analog output signal. The
calibrated transfer function converts a pressure range of 60 kPa to
165 kPa into a voltage range of 0.2 V to 4.8 V.
The chip is packaged in a “green” SMD housing. The sensor has been
primarily developed for measuring barometric air pressure, but can also
be used in other application fields. The high accuracy and the high
sensitivity of the device makes it a perfect fit for advanced automotive
applications as well as in industrial and consumer applications.
1.1 Features
Following features are supported by the KP236N6165:
• High precision pressure sensing (± 1.0 kPa)
• Ratiometric analog output
• Large temperature range (-40 °C to 125 °C)
• Broken wire detection
• “Green” 8 pin SMD housing
• Automotive qualified
1.2 Target Applications
The KP236N6165 is defined for use in following target applications:
• Automotive applications (barometric air pressure measurement)
• Industrial control
• Consumer applications
• Medical applications
• Weather stations
• Altimeters

Analog Absolute Pressure Sensor
Functional Description
Data Sheet 9 Revision 1.0, 2010-06-21
2 Functional Description
The pressure is detected by an array of capacitive surface micromachined sensor cells. The sensor cell output is
amplified, temperature compensated and linearized to obtain an output voltage that is proportional to the applied
pressure.
The transfer function for linearization is computed in the digital part of the sensor using a third order polynomial
calculation. The transfer function is created from the following parameters:
• Minimum and maximum rated pressure
• Voltage level at minimum and maximum rated pressure
The output is analog and ratiometric with respect to the supply voltage.
All parameters needed for the complete calibration algorithm — such as offset, gain, temperature coefficients of
offset and gain, and linearization parameters — are determined after assembly. The parameters are stored in an
integrated E²PROM. The E²PROM content is protected with forward error correction (a one bit error is detected
and corrected, errors of more than one bit are detected and the output signal is switched to ground potential).
Open Bond Detection
When the chip is not powered properly, the JFET transistors of the broken wire detection stage are self-
conducting. For example, if the GND connection is interrupted, the output is drawn strongly to VDD. Similarly, if
the VDD connection is broken, the output is drawn to GND.

2.4 Transfer Function
The KP236N6165 device is fully calibrated on delivery. The sensor has a linear transfer function between the
applied pressure and the output signal:
The output signal is ratiometric. Gain a and offset b are determined during calibration in order to generate the
required transfer function.
Calibrated Transfer Function
The following calibration is adjusted with the parameters a and b:
Note:The points

The operating pressure range is defined by the parameter 2.4 “Ambient operating pressure range” on

Note:The application circuitry determines the current driven by the device and thus may have an impact on the
output voltage delivered by the sensor.

2.5 Accuracy
The accuracy of the KP236N6165 sensor is influenced by the supply voltage (ratiometric error) as well as by
pressure, temperature and aging effects. The specified value, calculated with the transfer function, represents the
theoretical value (see
Figure 3
). The error equals the deviation between the measured output voltage value and
the specified output voltage value.
2.5.1 Ratiometric Error
Ideally the sensor is ratiometric - the output (V
OUT
) scales by the same ratio that
V
DD
increases or decreases. The
ratiometric error is defined as the difference between the ratio that
V
DD
changed and the ratio that
V
OUT
changed,
expressed as a percentage.
The output voltage
V
OUT
is ratiometric to
V
DD
.
V
DD
must be in the operating range provided in
Table 7
.
Figure 4 Ratiometric error
2.5.2 Overall Accuracy

following:
•
Pressure:
Output deviation from target transfer function over the specified pressure range
•
Temperature:
Output deviation over the temperature range
•
Aging:
Parameter drift over life time

3 Specification
3.1 Application Circuit Example
It is recommended to protect the pressure sensor IC against overload and electro-magnetic interferences (as
shown in
Figure 10
).
The output circuit acts as a low-pass decoupling filter between the sensor IC output and the A/D input of the
microcontroller.
The shown application circuit example considers an increased cable length between the sensor and the
microcontroller. A combined location on a PCB with reduced distance between the sensor and the controller allows
a reduction of the numbers of the passive components (e.g.
C
2
,
R
1
and
R
2
can be omitted).
Figure 10 Application circuit example
Note:It is recommended to leave the digital pins CLOCK/V
PROG
, DATA IN and DATA OUT floating (in case of an
open GND connection, the floating pins prevent from a cross grounding through the corresponding ESD
diodes).

3.2 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Attention: Stresses above the max. values listed in Table 6 may cause permanent damage to the device.
Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device
reliability. Maximum ratings are absolute ratings; exceeding only one of these values may
cause irreversible damage to the integrated circuit.
