HALL EFFECT PRESSURE TRANSDUCER

摘要

A Hall effect pressure transducer incorporates a pressure-deflection diaphragm which has patterned depressions therein to enhance linearity of response; an O-ring diaphragm seal which seals the diaphragm against pressure leaks without affecting the linearity of response; a pair of magnets, preferably rectangular, oriented with their North-South axes oppositely parallel, and oriented transverse to the deflection axis of the diaphragm to provide a uniform magnetic field gradient and sensitive, accurate, linear response of the transducer to either positive or negative pressure-induced deflections of the diaphragm.
