Freescale MPXHZ6115A6U (quantity 1)  

New part, still in the original packaging. We bought more than we needed.  This is the smallest version of the 4115/6115 sensors that we have available.

Another nifty part. The output voltage changes as the surrounding air pressure changes. It's a trivial matter to read the voltage into a microcontroller (Arduino, Basic Stamp, PIC, etc) and convert that ADC reading into barometric pressure (and from there to altitude).

NOTE: All orders are packed at our ESD station using proper anti-static packaging materials.

Description:

The MPXxx6115A series sensor integrates on-chip, bipolar op amp circuitry and thin film resistor networks to provide a high output signal and temperature compensation. The small form factor and high reliability of on-chip integration make the pressure sensor a logical and economical choice for the system designer.

The MPXxx6115A series piezoresistive transducer is a state-of-the-art, monolithic, signal conditioned, silicon pressure sensor. This sensor combines advanced micromachining techniques, thin film metallization, and bipolar semiconductor processing to provide an accurate, high level analog output signal that is proportional to applied pressure.
