Reading Freescale MPX2202 series pressure sensor


hi,

i've spent last 2-3 weeks trying arduino read pressure sensor, no avail. here's datasheet:
http://www.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/data_sheet/mpx2202.pdf

i have part: mpxm2202gs. here's i've tried far:


so, think have connected incorrectly instrumentation amplifier, should work purpose. using part:
http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ad8293g80_160.pdf

+5v voltage supply both sensor , amplifier. tried connecting in+ +vout , in- -vout, i'm getting ~5v on adc output. tried inverse: connecting in+ -vout , in- +vout. still getting ~5v on adc output pin. see attachment amp connection schematic. had create own symbol though. , 4 wires coming left - go pressure sensor connector. note wiring reversed in cable, goes (top bottom) pin 3, 2, 4, 1 on pressure sensor.

when disconnect +vout , -vout amplifier, reading between 0 , 5mv between 2 terminals. both around 2.5v ground or vs. when connected amp, i'm reading 3v on in- , 5v on in+.

i'm out of ideas @ point. see wrong connections? ideas on can tried next?

thanks help! , apologize length, trying put know out there.

you'll need intrumentation amp  or rail_to_rail op-amp. (as application note)
schetch shows 30x ampl, u need more. -> change 2 of resistors
calibrating unit can done software..

  1. Can I ask you a question? Tell me, please, that in normal (there's not any contact from outside sensor), the value of OUTPUT is equal Voffset or 0.02V ( 1 atm). Thanks for your answer!
