A micromechanical systems (MEMs) pressure sensor includes a semiconductor substrate having a deep well located within a first surface and a cavity located within a second, opposing surface. The semiconductor substrate has a first doping type. The deep well has a second doping type, with a gradient doping profile, thereby forming a PN junction within the substrate. The cavity forms a diaphragm, which is a substrate section that is thinner than the surrounding substrate sections, that comprises the deep well. One or more pizeoresistor elements are located within the deep well. The piezoresistors are sensitive to deformations, such as bending, in the diaphragm caused by changes in the pressure of the cavity.
