MEMS Based Pressure Sensors – Linearity and Sensitivity Issues

This paper describes the various nonlinearities (NL) encountered in the Si-based Piezoresistive pressure sensors. The effect of various factors like diaphragm thickness, diaphragm curvature, position of the piezoresistors etc. is analyzed taking anisotropy into account. Also, the effect of modified...
