Novel Air Flow Meter for an Automobile Engine Using a Si Sensor with Porous Si Thermal Isolation

An air flow meter for measuring the intake air of an automobile engine is presented. It is based on a miniaturized silicon thermal mass flow sensor using a thick porous Si (Po-Si) layer for local thermal isolation from the Si substrate, on which the sensor active elements are integrated. The sensor...
