    摘要: A resonant sensor comprises a support structure comprising two support points; a laminar resonator suspended between said two support points of said support structure and comprising a plurality of substantially parallel flexural members which are responsive to relative movement of said support points; means for exciting said resonator into a balanced mode of oscillation and means for sensing motion of said resonator. Said means for sensing motion of said resonator is or are spaced from, and linked to, said flexible area of said resonator by means of levers. Said support points are preferably adapted to move relative to each other in response to a difference in pressure, force or acceleration.

    摘要: A resonant microbeam pressure sensor is disclosed, comprising a microbeam suspended in a diaphragm in at least one point by suspension elements. Pressure applied to the diaphragm will cause the resonance frequency of the beam to shift. This shift is detectable and proportional to the pressure, The device is manufactured by surface micromachining.

    摘要: A pressure responsive diaphragm or capsule having a variable self-resonant frequency characteristic is excited to vibrate in a mode other than the fundamental or f01 mode, that is, vibration occurs in a mode wherein at least first and second portions of the diaphragm are simultaneously moving 180* out of phase with respect to one another. This is accomplished by suitably coupling first and second electromechanical transducers to the first and second diaphragm portions respectively. A feedback amplifier whose output frequency is determined by the frequency at which the first transducer is vibrating is connected to drive the second transducer.

    摘要: A capacitive pressure transducer of an embodiment of the present invention capacitively couples two electrodes on a substrate with a diaphragm electrode to form a transducing circuit without the need for a physical connection between the electrodes. Embodiments of the present invention have a substrate with a coupling electrode and a sensing electrode and an attached diaphragm with a diaphragm electrode. A spacer positioned between the substrate and the diaphragm provides for a cavity that defines a gap between the sensing electrode and the diaphragm electrode. A dielectric spacer may be positioned over the coupling electrode to increase the capacitance between the coupling electrode and the diaphragm electrode. The capacitive pressure transducer has similar electrical characteristics as existing capacitive pressure transducers, is easier to manufacture, and has long-term reliability and durability improvements brought about by the elimination of mechanical interconnects and additional conductive materials.

    摘要: A system and method mitigate the effects of these external vibrations on a capacitance diaphragm gauge by sensing the motion of the diaphragm at the first natural frequency of the diaphragm of the CDG. The presence of the natural frequency signals superimposed on the pressure signal is determined by sensing variations in the output of a sensor at or near the known natural frequency of the diaphragm and filtering that known low frequency from the output. The filtered signal is used in a feedback circuit to impose electrostatic forces on the diaphragm. The imposed electrostatic forces oppose the motion created by the external vibration to suppress the effects of the vibration on the pressure measured by the CDG.
