Hermetically sealed pressure sensing device

A fluid pressure sensing device comprising:

• a pressure sensing transducer having a support structure and a diaphragm attached to said support structure, the diaphragm having a fluid facing side to be exposed to a fluid pressure;
• a connector body having connector terminals therein;
• a housing for forming a chamber together with the connector body;
• and
• an electrical circuit disposed in the chamber electrically connected to the transducer and connector terminals for providing an electrical signal corresponding to the applied pressure at the diaphragm, the housing having a transducer receiving cavity defined by a bottom wall and a housing sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, the bottom wall formed with a fluid pressure receiving recess, a fluid pressure port formed in the housing in communication with the recess,
• wherein, the diaphragm is positioned between the support structure and the fluid pressure receiving recess and a seal material around a support structure sidewall fixes the pressure sensing transducer in the housing and provides a hermetic seal.
