improving resolution and system accuracy. Optional internal
diagnostics validate that the sensor readings are correct.
• Flexible: Supply voltage range, variety of pressure units,
types, and ranges, output options, and wide operating
temperature range simplify use in the application.
• Versatile: Wet-media compatibility, sleep mode, and
temperature output options make the sensor a versatile
choice for Internet of Things applications.
• Honeywell Brand: Utilize proprietary Honeywell technology,
and are protected by multiple global patents.
DIFFERENTIATION
• Enhanced accuracy helps the design engineer fully
understand the error in measurement.
• Wide supply voltage range offers design flexibility.
• Power consumption when utilizing sleep mode option allows
for use in battery-powered applications.
DESCRIPTION
The ABP Series are piezoresistive silicon pressure sensors
offering a ratiometric analog or digital output for reading
pressure over the specified full scale pressure span and
temperature range. They are calibrated and temperature
compensated for sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature
effects and accuracy errors (which include non-linearity,
repeatability and hysteresis) using an on-board Application
Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Calibrated output
values for pressure are updated at approximately 1 kHz for
analog and 2 kHz for digital. All products are designed and
manufactured according to ISO 9001 standards.
• Dry gases option: The input port is limited to non-corrosive,
non-ionic media (e.g., dry air, gases) and should not be
exposed to condensation. The gases are limited to media
compatible with high temperature polyamide, silicone,
alumina ceramic, silicon, gold, and glass.
• Liquid media option: Includes an additional silicone-based
gel coating to protect the electronics under port P1, which
enables use with non-corrosive liquids (e.g. water and
saline) and in applications where condensation can occur.
Since port P2 is designed for use with non-corrosive liquids,
this option is often suitable for wet-wet differential sensing.
VALUE TO CUSTOMERS
• Simplifies design-in: Small size saves room on the PC board
(PCB), or simplifies design in smaller and lower power
devices. Meets Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 requirements,
which allows for unlimited shelf life when stored at
<30 ºC/85 %RH and, under most storage conditions, allows
for PCB soldering without any material concern about solder
joint quality due to aging of the sensor terminals, which
minimizes the concern about aging of the terminals prior
PCB assembly. Pressure choices allow engineers to select
range required for their application. Leadless SMT, SMT, and
DIP package options.
• Cost-effective: Small size helps engineers reduce design
and manufacturing costs while maintaining enhanced
performance and reliability of the systems they design.
• Accurate: Total Error Band (TEB) and wide pressure range
enable engineers to optimize system performance by

Figure 1. Total Error Band
Total Error Band (TEB) is a single specification that includes
all possible sources of error. TEB should not be confused with
accuracy, which is actually a component of TEB. TEB is the worst
error that the sensor could experience. The TEB specification
on a datasheet may be confusing. Honeywell uses the TEB
specification in its datasheet because it is the most comprehensive
measurement of a sensor’s true accuracy. Honeywell also
provides the accuracy specification in order to provide a common
comparison with competitors’ literature that does not use the
TEB specification. Many competitors do not use TEB—they simply
specify the accuracy of their device. Their accuracy specification,
however, may exclude certain parameters. On their datasheet, the
errors are listed individually. When combined, the total error (or
what would be TEB) can be significant.

Sensors are either 3.3 Vdc or 5.0 Vdc based on the catalog listing selected.
2
Ratiometricity of the sensor (the ability of the device output to scale to the supply voltage) is achieved within the specified
operating voltage.
3
The sensor is not reverse polarity protected. Incorrect application of supply voltage or ground to the wrong pin may cause
electrical failure.
4
Operating temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to pressure.
5
Compensated temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to
pressure within the specified performance limits.
6
Temperature output option: Typical temperature output error over the compensated temperature range of 0°C to 50°C.
Operation in Sleep Mode may affect temperature output error depending on duty cycle. Refer to Figure 2 for temperature
output error over the operating temperature range.
7
Total Error Band: The maximum deviation from the ideal transfer function over the entire compensated temperature and
pressure range. Includes all errors due to offset, full scale span, pressure non-linearity, pressure hysteresis, repeatability,
thermal effect on offset, thermal effect on span, and thermal hysteresis.
8
Full Scale Span (FSS): The algebraic difference between the output signal measured at the maximum (Pmax.) and minimum
(Pmin.) limits of the pressure range. (See Figure 3.)
9
Accuracy: The maximum deviation in output from a Best Fit Straight Line (BFSL) fitted to the output measured over the
pressure range at 25°C [77°F]. Includes all errors due to pressure non-linearity, pressure hysteresis, and non-repeatability.

The transfer function limits define the output of the sensor at a given pressure input.
By specifying Pmin. and Pmax., the output at Pmin. and Pmax., the complete transfer
