•
0 to 1200 kPa range (12 bar or 174 PSI)
Absolute/differential pressure sensors
High linearity, small size
RoHS-compatible & Pb-free1
DESCRIPTION
The sensor element of the MS7912 consists of a small silicon micro-machined membrane with a Pyrex glass
mounted under vacuum. Implanted resistors make use of the piezo-resistive effect. The absolute pressure
sensor (MS7912A) carries a sealed vacuum reference cavity underneath the membrane whereas the differential
sensor (MS7912D) has a hole in the Pyrex glass at the backside of the sensor.

The European RoHS directive 2002/95/EC (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment)
bans the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium and polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) or polybrominated diphenyl ethers
(PBDE).

MS7912
As the sensing elements are diffused resistances, the voltage
applied on the ground pads (GND1 and GND2) has to be lower
than the voltage applied on supply voltage pad (Vs+).
The epitaxial layer is connected to the Vs+ pin on the die

NOTES
1) Deviation at one half full-scale pressure from the least squares best line fit over pressure range (0 to 12 bar).
2) Slope of the endpoint straight line from 25°C to 60°C.
3) Output deviation at any pressure within the specified range, when this pressure is cycled to and from the
minimum or maximum rated pressure, at 25°C.
4) Same as 3) after 10 pressure cycles.
5) Maximum difference in offset after one thermal cycle from -40°C to +125°C.

PICKING TOOLS
The MS7912 sensors have a sensitive membrane (0.5 x 0.5 mm) the top surface of the sensor dice has an outer
of diameter is: 1.62 x 1.48 mm. The pick and place tool has to be of a soft material as rubber (Hardness 78-97
Shore A). Its external size must fit the sensor and the vacuum cavity must be as large as the membrane itself.
Successful test where done with some tools of SPT, see SPT drawing and references bellow).
