    摘要: A semiconductor transducer comprises a semiconductor strain gauge composed of a mono-crystalline semiconducting material and a strain sensing region formed in a first main surface of the mono-crystalline semiconducting material, and a strain measuring member coupled to the semiconductor strain gauge through an alloy material. An electrical insulating layer is attached to a second main surface of the mono-crystalline semiconducting material which is coupled to the strain measuring member through the alloy material. The insulating layer is extended to a side surface of the mono-crystalline semiconducting material thereby to cover the same side.

    摘要: A method of making a silicon diaphragm pressure sensor includes forming an oxide film on one surface of a monocrystalline silicon substrate. A polycrystalline silicon layer is formed on the oxide film. The oxide film may be partly removed before the formation of the polycrystalline silicon layer. The polycrystalline silicon layer is heated and melt to recrystallize the same, thereby converting the polycrystalline silicon layer into a monocrystalline silicon layer. On the monocrystalline silicon layer may be epitaxially grown an additional monocrystalline silicon layer. By using the oxide film as an etching stopper, a predetermined portion of the substrate is etched over a range from the other surface of the substrate to the oxide film, thereby providing a diaphragm of the pressure sensor.

    摘要: A semiconductor pressure transducer includes a monocrystalline semiconductor diaphragm, the outer edges of which are fixed. When subjected to pressure, the transducer produces radial strains of opposite polarity in a central portion thereof and a portion surrounding the central portion close to the edge of the strain inducing region. The diaphragm contains a plurality of elongated resistances formed of semiconductor material of the same conductivity type which are electrically isolated from the diaphragm, per se. Resistances of an individual set which lie in proximity to one another are combined in the form of a bridge. The longitudinal direction of resistances forming one set of opposing arms of the bridge extend along axes of the same crystal system as the longitudinal direction of the elongated resistances forming the other set of opposing arms of the bridge. However, the longitudinal directions of the separate sets of resistances forming the opposing arms of the bridge lie in directions so that they do not orthogonally intersect each other.

    摘要: A pressure transducer is disclosed comprising a pressure sensor portion having gage resistors in bridge formed on a thin diaphragm of a semiconductor substrate, and a power supply connected to the pressure sensor portion for driving the pressure sensor. The power supply includes a first current source for supplying a temperature-dependent current equivalent to the sum of a current almost proportional to the absolute temperature and a current independent of temperature, and a second current source for sinking the current almost proportional to the temperature characteristic of the gage resistors from the current of the first current source. A temperature compensation circuit is additionally provided to drive the bridge circuit by the difference between the temperature-dependent current and the current proportional to the temperature characteristic in a constant-current driving mode, and by a voltage proportional to the current difference when the output of the bridge circuit is connected to an amplifier whose gain is dependent on temperature.

    摘要: A pressure transducer comprises a pressure sensor including a bridge connection of gauging resistors formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a power supply connected to the pressure sensor for driving it and basically acting as a constant current source. The power supply includes at least two transistors formed on the semiconductor substrate. One of the transistors provides a collector current which is less in temperature-dependency relative to that of the other transistor, and the other transistor has a collector circuit connected to the pressure sensor and provides a collector current corresponding to a sum of a substantially temperature-dependent current and a substantially temperature-independent current. A ratio of the temperature-dependent current to the temperature-independent current is adjusted by selecting operation characteristics of the two transistors such that a temperature characteristic of the collector current of the other transistor is substantially inversely proportional to a temperature characteristic of the output of the pressure sensor when it is driven with a constant voltage.
