发明名称 Integrated circuit with pressure sensor having a pair of electrodes
摘要 Disclosed is an integrated circuit (100), comprising a semiconductor substrate (110) carrying a plurality of circuit elements; and a pressure sensor including a cavity (140) on said semiconductor substrate, said cavity comprising a pair of electrodes (120, 122) laterally separated from each other; and a flexible membrane (130) over and spatially separated from said electrodes such that said membrane interferes with a fringe field between said electrodes, said membrane comprising at least one aperture (132). A method of manufacturing such an IC is also disclosed.
