Abstract:A b s t r a c tThe compatible integration of planar-processed microsensor structures with GaAs MESFET depletion-mode operational amplifiers is described.Basic low-noise differential amplifiers have been integrated with on-chip piezoelectric pressure sensors and accelerometers. A key design issue in this work is the fabrication constraint of forming both amplifiers and deformable microsensor structures on a common GaAs semi-insulating substrate. Circuits using 2.0 wm-gate FETs are formed in planar, direct, ion-… Show more
