Introduction of Differential Pressure Breakout
Differential Pressure Breakout with MPXV5010DP launched in the market for public consumption on 23rd Nov 2020.
SB Components has developed a Differential Pressure Breakout with NXP's MPXV5010DP that helps the user compare two pressure measurements. It allows the user to perform the task where the measurement of pressure(0-10kPa) is required that would make the task efficient.
About Differential Pressure Breakout Differential Pressure Breakout is the latest technology in the range of SB Component products that comprise NXP's MPXV5010DP that is an Integrated Silicon Pressure Sensor On-Chip Signal Conditioned, Temperature Compensated, and Calibrated.
It is not necessary to know the absolute pressure of a liquid or a gas in a system. If the users know the pressure difference value of the two points in the system then they can also facilitate their task. If the same situation comes then one can use differential Pressure Breakout. Differential Pressure Breakout consists of two axial ports to accommodate industrial grade tubing. In the temperature range between 0º and 85ºC, the maximum error rate of the sensor is 5.0%.

How does Differential Pressure Breakout work?
There are two pressure ports, P1 and P2, where P1 works as a Pressure Side and P2 as a Vacuum side. Differential Pressure Breakout has a measurement range of 0 to 10kPa. Pressure Side(P1) is greater than the Vacuum Side(P2) that makes the Differentials Pressure Breakout operate on positive differential pressure. The signal passes through the onboard 22-bit ADC before being output through the SPI interface.
What is the need for Differential Pressure Breakout?
The differential pressure breakout allows the user to get a comparative measurement between two points. If we take an example like before and after a valve in a pipe. Consider that If the valve is fully open, the pressure on both sides of the pipe should be the same but if there is a difference in the pressure, it could be the valve is not fully open or there is a blockage inside the path of the pipe.
If we understand the base of Differential pressure breakout then it is packaged with two ports to which pipes can be attached. The pipes are then connected to the system where the measurement is to be made. Industrial differential sensors may be integrated into a standardized fitting, allowing it to be built into existing pipework.
