Abstract: A resonant pressure sensor with improved linearity includes: a substrate including a substrate-separated portion separated from a housing-fixed portion; a first resonator that: is disposed in the substrate-separated portion; and detects a change of a first resonance frequency based on a strain in the substrate caused by static pressure applied by a pressure-receiving fluid; a second resonator that: is disposed in the substrate; detects a change of a second resonance frequency based on the strain in the substrate; and has a pressure sensitivity of the second resonance frequency; and a processor that: measures the static pressure based on the detected change of the first resonance frequency; and corrects the static pressure according to internal temperature of the pressure sensor based on a difference between the second resonance frequency and the first resonance frequency.

Abstract: A resonant pressure sensor with improved linearity includes a substrate including a substrate-fixed portion fixed to a housing-fixed portion and a substrate-separated portion separated from the housing-fixed portion in a first direction; a first resonator disposed in the substrate-separated portion to detect a change of a resonance frequency based on a strain caused by static pressure applied by a pressure-receiving fluid interposed in a gap between the housing-fixed portion and the substrate; a first electrode extending along a second direction to output an excitation signal to the first resonator; a second electrode that extends along the second direction and from which the first resonator outputs a signal having the resonance frequency; and a processor that measures the static pressure based on the detected change.

Abstract: A resonant pressure sensor includes a first substrate and a resonator. The first substrate includes a diaphragm and a projection disposed on the diaphragm. The resonator is disposed in the first substrate, a part of the resonator being included in the projection, and the resonator being disposed between a top of the projection and an intermediate level of the first substrate. The first substrate is an SOI substrate in which a silicon dioxide layer is inserted between a silicon substrate and a superficial silicon layer. The intermediate level of the first substrate is disposed in the silicon substrate, and the resonator is disposed in the projection included in the superficial silicon layer.
