A capacitive pressure sensor was realized by using low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) materials and technology. The paper will present the design considerations of a sensing element, and compares the experimental data to the theoretical design, with the aim to improve the sensor's characteristics. Special points of attention are the linearity, the temperature behaviour, the pressure media and the behaviour of the reference pressure medium.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
