Abstract

See full text

A differential pressure sensor comprises a cavity having a base including a base electrode and a membrane suspended above the base which includes a membrane electrode, wherein the first membrane is sealed with the cavity defined beneath the first membrane. A first pressure input port is coupled to the space above the sealed first membrane. A capacitive read out system is used to measure the capacitance between the base electrode and membrane electrode. An interconnecting channel is between the cavity and a second pressure input port, so that the sensor is responsive to the differential pressure applied to opposite sides of the membrane by the two input ports.
