Pressure transducer with a housing for use with a conventionally packaged pressure sensor

A pressure transducer comprising:

• a standard disk-shaped pressure sensor component having a conventional base, such as those used in conventionally manufactured semiconductor components, that is welded to a first end of a pressure supplying body in the edge area on one side, the pressure sensor component further having conventional electrical connecting wires and a conventional connecting tube, the electrical connecting wires and the connecting tube being arranged on a low-pressure side of the pressure sensor component;
• a cap-like part which surrounds the pressure sensor component on the outside and whose bottom is above the low-pressure side of the pressure sensor component and which has individual openings for each of the electric connecting wires and the connecting tube, wherein the openings for the electric connecting wires are insulated;
• and
• a pressure transmitting part that is connected by a separating membrane to a second end of the pressure supplying body;
• wherein the base of the standard pressure sensor component is in contact with the bottom of said cap-like part through an intermediate filling of cast resin, and said cap-like part is welded to the pressure transmitting part.
