DESCRIPTION
The MS7201-A2 is an absolute silicon micro-machined pressure sensor for harsh environment, with the pads on
one side. A vacuum reference cavity is sealed on top of the sensitive silicon membrane by the anodic bonding of
a glass cap. The pressure, applied on the backside, is converted in electrical signal by piezo-resistors implanted
in the silicon membrane. To improve the sensor stability, a drilled glass is bonded on the backside. As the
pressure port consists of glass and silicon, both stable in most of the chemicals, the MS7201-A2 is suitable for
media-resistive applications.

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).

PAD OUT
Important remarks:
The epitaxial layer is not connected to the Vs+ pin on the
die; this is to allow temperature measurement with the
diode. The epi contact and the cathode of the diode have
the same electrical potential. To avoid bias effects, diode
and bridge cannot be used simultaneously.
As the sensing elements are diffused resistances, the
voltage applied on the ground pads (GND) and on the
supply voltage (Vs+) have to be lower or equal than the
voltage applied on the epi contact (EPI). For better stability it
is good to define the potential of the EPI.

NOTES
1) Deviation at one half full-scale pressure from the least squares best line fit over pressure range (0 to 1 bar).
2) The forward voltage of the diode is measured when driving it with a typical value of 40 µA.
3) Slope of the endpoint straight line from 25°C to 60°C.
4) 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.
5) Same as 6) after 10 pressure cycles.
6) Maximum difference in offset after one thermal cycle from -40°C to +150°C.
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
The diode between the piezo diffusion and the epi contact can be used for temperature measurement. The
forward voltage of the diode is measured on I diode (-) when a typical current of 40 µA fed in I diode (+).
Temperature measurement cannot be done at the same time as pressure sensing due to bias effects.

PICKING TOOLS
2
2
The MS7201 sensors have a topside glass cap (1.11 x 1.35 mm ) and a backside glass (1.79 x 1.35 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
glass cap. Successful tests were done with some tools of SPT (see SPT drawing and references bellow).

WIRE BONDING

2
The bondable area is 100 x 100 µm for the EPI pad and 100 x 285 µm for the other pads. The location of the
bonding pads is close to the top Pyrex glass edge reducing the possible size and angle of the bonding capillary.
Refer to the detail view D on the layout for more precision.
