Abstract
A pressure sensor device is described that has a diaphragm acted upon by a working medium, on a first side, and a sensor chip, which is disposed on a second side of the diaphragm that is remote from the working medium. There is formed in the sensor chip a measuring bridge having four sensor elements, which form two pairs disposed parallel, and the pairs are disposed at right angles to one another. The sensor elements are disposed such that they are closely spaced apart from one another in the edge region of the sensor chip that faces toward the central point of the diaphragm.
Claims3
A pressure sensor device, comprising:
- a diaphragm having a first side acted upon by a working medium, a second side, and a central point;
- and
- a sensor chip disposed on said second side of said diaphragm remote from the working medium, said sensor chip having a measuring bridge with four sensor elements, said sensor elements formed in two pairs with said sensor elements within said pairs disposed parallel to one another and said pairs disposed at right angles to one another, said sensor elements disposed such that said sensor elements are closely spaced apart from one another in an edge region of said sensor chip which faces toward said central point of said diaphragm.
