A metal thin film bonds a semiconductor bonding region of a diaphragm layer to a ceramic bonding region of a high modulus support block. The arrangement isolates a pressure sensing diaphragm from undesired strain, improving sensor accuracy. A passageway through the support block couples the fluid pressure to the sensing diaphragm to deflect it. Capacitive coupling between the diaphragm and a capacitor plate on the support block sense the deflection and provide an output representative of pressure. |
