摘要: A control system coupled to a pressure sensor calibrates the pressure sensor. The control system may measure a plurality of capacitance values at a plurality of corresponding applied voltages to compare the values with a first calibration mechanism generated by sample pressure sensors in a comparison. A final calibration mechanism may be generated by adjusting the first calibration mechanism in response to the comparison. The unknown differential pressure may be applied to a diaphragm of the pressure sensor. A capacitance value at the unknown differential pressure may then be measured. Using the final calibration mechanism, the differential pressure at the measured capacitance value may be retrieved.

摘要: A wireless pressure sensor system has a pressure sensing capacitor and an inductor mounted on a common housing. The pressure sensing capacitor has a conductive diaphragm, a dielectric layer and a fixed electrode separated at least in part from the diaphragm by a gap formed in the housing. The electrode is arranged with a protrusion such that displacement of the diaphragm varies the area of capacitive contact with the electrode by rolling along the protrusion. The inductor coil and pressure sensing capacitor are connected to form a passive inductive-capacitive (LC) tank circuit. A remote interrogation circuit, inductively coupled to the pressure sensor inductor coil can be utilized to detect the resonant frequency of the LC tank which varies as a function of pressure sensed by the diaphragm.

The integrated circuit can be formed from, for example, silicon carbide. A metallization layer can also be formed on the integrated circuit, wherein the integrated circuit is configured upon the substrate of the sensor die. The metallization layer thus adheres to the integrated circuit via the weld(s).

摘要: A plastic substrate can be provided and thereafter a plurality of metal-to-metal connections can be ultrasonically bonded to the plastic substrate. One or more dies and a plurality of conductive components thereof can then be respectively connected to the metal-to-metal connections in order to provide a plastic leadframe package structure that includes electronic circuitry thereon. The plurality of conductive components can be configured as discrete components, while the die itself can be configured as a Flip Chip On Plastic Leadframe component. By utilizing plastic as the basis for a substrate and, ultrasonic bonding of the metal-to-metal connections, a complex substrate formed from plastic can provide a structure, particularly a plastic leadframe structure, that allows for the use of parts and components that are much less expensive than presently utilized parts and components.
