High Endurance (HM version)  
The MS5541C is the miniature version of MS5535C pressure  
sensor module. The MS5541-HM 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.

FUNCTION  
GENERAL  
The MS5541C consists of a piezo-resistive sensor and a sensor interface IC. The main function of the MS5541C is  
to convert the uncompensated analogue output voltage from the piezo-resistive pressure sensor to a 16-bit digital  
value, as well as providing a 16-bit digital value for the temperature of the sensor.  
Measured pressure (16-bit)  
Measured temperature (16-bit)  
“D1”  
“D2”  
As the output voltage of a pressure sensor is strongly dependent on temperature and process tolerances, it is  
necessary to compensate for these effects. This compensation procedure must be performed by software using an  
external microcontroller.

controller  
Sensor  
For both pressure and temperature measurement the same ADC is used (sigma delta converter):  
for the pressure measurement, the differential output voltage from the pressure sensor is converted  
for the temperature measurement, the sensor bridge resistor is sensed and converted  
During both measurements the sensor will only be switched on for a very short time in order to reduce power  
consumption. As both, the bridge bias and the reference voltage for the ADC are derived from VDD, the digital output  
data is independent of the supply voltage.  
FACTORY CALIBRATION  
Every module is individually factory calibrated at two temperatures and two pressures. As a result, 6 coefficients  
necessary to compensate for process variations and temperature variations are calculated and stored in the 64-bit  
PROM of each module. These 64-bit (partitioned into four words of 16-bit) must be read by the microcontroller  
software and used in the program converting D1 and D2 into compensated pressure and temperature values.  
PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT  
The sequence of reading pressure and temperature as well as of performing the software compensation is depicted  
in Fig. 3 and Fig. 5.  
First Word1 to Word4 have to be read through the serial interface. This can be done once after reset of the  
microcontroller that interfaces to the MS5541C. Next, the compensation coefficients C1 to C6 are extracted using  
bit-wise logical- and shift-operations (refer to Fig. 4 for the bit-pattern of Word1 to Word4).  
For the pressure measurement, the microcontroller has to read the 16-bit values for pressure (D1) and temperature  
(D2) via the serial interface in a loop (for instance every second). Then, the compensated pressure is calculated  
out of D1, D2 and C1 to C6 according to the algorithm in Fig. 3 (possibly using quadratic temperature compensation  
according to Fig. 5). All calculations can be performed with signed 16-bit variables. Results of multiplications may  
be up to 32-bit long (+sign). In the flow according to Fig. 3 a division follows each multiplication. This division can  
be performed by bit-wise shifting (divisors are to the power of 2). It is ensured that the results of these divisions are  
less than 65536 (16 bit).  
For the timing of signals to read out Word1 to Word4, D1, and D2 please refer to the paragraph “Serial Interface".

SECOND-ORDER TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION  
In order to obtain full temperature accuracy over the whole temperature range, it is recommended to compensate  
for the non-linearity of the output of the temperature sensor. This can be achieved by correcting the calculated  
temperature and pressure by a second order correction factor. The second-order factors are calculated as follows:  
dT < 0  
dT 0  
yes  
yes  
Low Temperatures  
High Temperatures  
dT2 = dT – (dT/128*dT/128)/2  
dT2 = dT – (dT/128*dT/128)/8  
Calculate temperature  
TEMP = (200 + dT2*(C6+100)/211  
) (0.1°C)

SERIAL INTERFACE  
The MS5541C communicates with microprocessors and other digital systems via a 3-wire synchronous serial  
interface as shown in Fig. 1. The SCLK (Serial clock) signal initiates the communication and synchronizes the data  
transfer with each bit being sampled by the MS5541C on the rising edge of SCLK and each bit being sent by the  
MS5541C on the rising edge of SCLK. The data should thus be sampled by the microcontroller on the falling edge  
of SCLK and sent to the MS5541C with the falling edge of SCLK. The SCLK-signal is generated by the  
microprocessor’s system. The digital data provided by the MS5541C on the DOUT pin is either the conversion result  
or the software calibration data. In addition, the signal DOUT (Data out) is also used to indicate the conversion  
status (conversion-ready signal, see below). The selection of the output data is done by sending the corresponding  
instruction on the pin DIN (Data input).  
Following is a list of possible output data instructions:  
Conversion start for pressure measurement and ADC-data-out  
Conversion start for temperature measurement and ADC-data-out  
Calibration data read-out sequence for Word1  
Calibration data read-out sequence for Word2

(Figure 6b)  
(Figure 6c)  
(Figure 6d)  
(Figure 6c)  
(Figure 6d)  
(Figure 6e)  
Every communication starts with an instruction sequence at pin DIN. Fig. 6 shows the timing diagrams for the  
MS5541C. The device does not need a ‘Chip select’ signal. Instead there is a START sequence (3-Bit high) before  
each SETUP sequence and STOP sequence (3-Bit low) after each SETUP sequence. The SETUP sequence  
consists in 4-Bit that select a reading of pressure, temperature or calibration data. In case of pressure- (D1) or  
temperature- (D2) reading the module acknowledges the start of a conversion by a low to high transition at pin  
DOUT.  
Two additional clocks at SCLK are required after the acknowledge signal. Then SCLK is to be held low by the  
microcontroller until a high to low transition on DOUT indicates the end of the conversion.  
This signal can be used to create an interrupt in the microcontroller. The microcontroller may now read out the 16  
bit word by giving another 17 clocks on the SLCK pin. It is possible to interrupt the data READOUT sequence with  
a hold of the SCLK signal. It is important to always read out the last conversion result before starting a new  
conversion.  
The RESET sequence is special as the module in any state recognizes its unique pattern. By consequence, it can  
be used to restart if synchronization between the microcontroller and the MS5541C has been lost. This sequence  
is 21-bit long. The DOUT signal might change during that sequence (see Fig. 6e). It is recommended to send the  
RESET sequence before each CONVERSION sequence to avoid hanging up the protocol permanently in case of  
electrical interference.

Miniature 14 bar Module  
APPLICATION INFORMATION  
GENERAL  
The advantage for this combination of a sensor with a directly adapted integrated circuit is to save other external  
components and to achieve very low power consumption. The main application field for this system includes  
portable devices with battery supply, but its high accuracy and resolution make it also suited for industrial and  
automotive applications. The possibility to compensate the sensor with software allows the user to adapt it to his  
particular application. Communication between the MS5541C and the widely available microcontrollers is realised  
over an easy-to-use 3-wire serial interface. Customers may select which microcontroller system to be used, and  
there are no specific standard interface cells required, which may be of interest for specially designed 4 Bit-  
microcontroller applications.  
CALIBRATION  
The MS5541C is factory calibrated. The calibration data is stored inside the 64 bit PROM memory.  
SOLDERING  
Please refer to the application note AN808 for all soldering issues.  
HUMIDITY, WATER PROTECTION  
The silicon pressure transducer and the bonding wires are protected by an anticorrosive and antimagnetic protection  
cap. The MS5541C carries a metal protection cap filled with silicone gel for enhanced protection against humidity.  
The properties of this gel ensure function of the sensor even when in direct water contact. This feature can be useful  
for waterproof watches or other applications, where direct water contact cannot be avoided. Nevertheless the user  
should avoid drying of hard materials like for example salt particles on the silicone gel surface. In this case it is  
better to rinse with clean water afterwards. Special care has to be taken to not mechanically damage the gel.  
Damaged gel could lead to air entrapment and consequently to unstable sensor signal, especially if the damage is  
close to the sensor surface.  
The metal protection cap is fabricated of special anticorrosive and antimagnetic stainless steel in order to avoid any  
corrosive battery effects inside the final product. The MS5541C was qualified referring to the ISO 6425 standard  
and can withstand a pressure of 30 bar in salt water. The concentration of the see water used for the qualification  
is 41 g of see salt for 1 litre of DI water.  
For underwater operations like specified in ISO 6425 standard it is important to seal the sensor with a rubber O-  
Ring around the metal Ring. Any salt water coming to the contact side (ceramic and Pads) of the sensor could lead  
to permanent damage. For "water-resistant" watches it is recommended to provide a stable mechanical pusher from  
the backside of the sensor. Otherwise the overpressure might push the sensor backwards and even bend the  
electronic board on which the sensor is mounted.  
LIGHT SENSITIVITY  
The MS5541C is protected against sunlight by a layer of white gel. It is, however, important to note that the sensor  
may still be slightly sensitive to sunlight, especially to infrared light sources. This is due to the strong photo effect  
of silicon. As the effect is reversible there will be no damage, but the user has to take care that in the final product  
the sensor cannot be exposed to direct light during operation. This can be achieved for instance by placing  
mechanical parts with holes in such that light cannot pass.

CONNECTION TO PCB  
The package outline of the module allows the use of a flexible PCB to connect it. This can be important for  
applications in watches and other special devices, and will also reduce mechanical stress on the device.  
For applications subjected to mechanical shock, it is recommended to enhance the mechanical reliability of the  
solder junctions by covering the rim or the corners of MS5541C's ceramic substrate with glue or Globtop-like  
material.  
DECOUPLING CAPACITOR  
Particular care must be taken when connecting the device to power supply. A 47 F tantalum capacitor must be  
placed as close as possible of the MS5541C's VDD pin. This capacitor will stabilize the power supply during data  
conversion and thus, provide the highest possible accuracy.  
APPLICATION EXAMPLE: DIVING COMPUTER SYSTEM USING MS5541C  
MS5541C is a circuit that can be used in connection with a microcontroller in diving computer applications. It is  
designed for low-voltage systems with a supply voltage of 3V, particularly in battery applications. The MS5541C is  
optimised for low current consumption as the AD-converter clock (MCLK) can use the 32.768 kHz frequency of a  
standard watch crystal, which is supplied in most portable watch systems.  
For applications in altimeter systems MEAS Switzerland can deliver a simple formula to calculate the altitude, based  
on a linear interpolation, where the number of interpolation points influences the accuracy of the formula.

ASSEMBLY  
MECHANICAL STRESS  
It is recommended to avoid mechanical stress on the PCB on which the sensor is mounted. The thickness of the  
PCB should not be below 1.6 mm. A thicker PCB is stiffer creating less stress on the soldering contacts. For  
applications where mechanical stress cannot be avoided (for example ultrasound welding of the case or thin PCB’s  
in watches) please fix the sensor with drops of low stress epoxy (for example Hysol FP-4401).  
MOUNTING  
The MS5541C can be placed with automatic Pick&Place equipment using vacuum nozzles. It will not be damaged  
by the vacuum. Due to the low stress assembly the sensor does not show pressure hysteresis effects.  
Special care has to be taken to not touch the protective gel of the sensor during the assembly.  
The MS5541C can be mounted with the cap down or the cap looking upwards. In both cases it is important to solder  
all contact pads. The Pins PEN and PV shall be left open or connected to VDD. Do not connect the Pins PEN and  
PV to GND!  
SEALING WITH O-RING  
In products like outdoor watches the electronics must be protected against direct water or humidity. For those  
products the MS5541-CM provides the possibility to seal with an O-ring. The protective cap of the MS5541CM is  
made of special anticorrosive stainless steel with a polished surface. In addition to this the MS5541CM is filled with  
silicone gel covering the sensor and the bonding wires. The O-ring (or O-rings) shall be placed at the outer diameter  
of the metal cap. This method avoids mechanical stress because the sensor can move in vertical direction.  
CLEANING  
The MS5541C has been manufactured under cleanroom conditions. Each device has been inspected for the  
homogeneity and the cleanness of the silicone gel. It is therefore recommended to assemble the sensor under class  
10’000 or better conditions. Should this not be possible, it is recommended to protect the sensor opening during  
assembly from entering particles and dust. To avoid cleaning of the PCB, solder paste of type “no-clean” shall be  
used. Cleaning might damage the sensor!  
ESD PRECAUTIONS  
The electrical contact pads are protected against ESD up to 4 kV HBM (human body model). It is therefore essential  
to ground machines and personal properly during assembly and handling of the device. The MS5541C is shipped  
in antistatic transport boxes. Any test adapters or production transport boxes used during the assembly of the sensor  
shall be of an equivalent antistatic material.
