MS5541C
Miniature 14 bar Module
The MS5541C is the miniature version of MS5535C pressure
sensor module. The MS5541-HE is the high endurance pad
technology version of MS5541C pressure sensor module. It
contains a precision piezoresistive pressure sensor and an
improved version of the 16 Bit Micropower Sensor interface IC
known from the MS5535C. Compared to the previous version the
ESD sensitivity has been improved to 4kV on all pins. In addition
to this the MS5541C is from its outer dimensions compatible to the
MS54xx series of pressure sensors. It uses an antimagnetic
polished stainless steel ring for sealing with O-ring. The sensor
provides 16 Bit pressure and temperature data via a 3 wire serial
interface that can be easily interfaced with 4 Bit low power
microcontrollers. 64 Bit of factory programmed PROM provides
calibration data for a highly accurate pressure and temperature
calculation. The MS5541C is fully software compatible to the
MS5535C and previous versions of MS5541.

NOTES
1) Under the assumption of one conversion every second. Conversion means either a pressure or a temperature
measurement started by a command to the serial interface of MS5541C.
2) During conversion the sensor will be switched on and off in order to reduce power consumption; the total on
time within a conversion is about 2 ms.
3) This value can be reduced by switching off MCLK while MS5541C is in standby mode.
4) It is strongly recommended that a crystal oscillator be used because the device is sensitive to clock jitter. A
square-wave form of the clock signal is a must.

NOTES
1) A stable pressure reading of the given resolution requires taking the average of 2 to 4 subsequent pressure
values due to noise of the ADC.
2) Maximum error of pressure reading over the pressure range.
3) With the second-order temperature compensation as described in Section "FUNCTION". See next section for
typical operating curves.
4) The long-term stability is measured with non-soldered devices.
5) Wet/dry cycle: sensor must be dried typically once a day.
TEMPERATURE OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS
This temperature information is not required for most applications, but it is necessary to allow for temperature
compensation of the pressure output.
