Pin Number Pin Name Pin Function Description 1 Vout Analog Output Voltage 2 GND Ground ( Electrical Ground) 3 NC No Connect (Reserved Pin) 4 Vdd Supply Voltage (3.3V or 5V, depending on sensor configuration) 5 Vdd Supply Voltage (3.3V or 5V, same as Pin 4) 6 Vout Analog Output Voltage (same as Pin 1)3. Circuit Principles and Explanation
The MP3V5050GC6U is an analog pressure sensor, which produces an analog output voltage that is proportional to the applied pressure. The sensor operates as follows:
Vdd (Pins 4 and 5) is connected to the supply voltage (typically 3.3V or 5V). This powers the internal circuitry of the sensor. GND (Pin 2) serves as the common reference or ground for the device. Vout (Pins 1 and 6) is the analog output that represents the measured pressure. The output voltage varies in proportion to the pressure applied to the sensor. NC (Pin 3) is a no-connect pin, which is not electrically connected to the internal circuitry.In terms of functionality, the sensor uses a MEMS-based sensing element that detects changes in pressure and converts this into a change in electrical resistance. This change is then translated into an output voltage that can be read by an external microcontroller or analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
