The Design and Optimization of a Highly Sensitive and Overload-Resistant Piezoresistive Pressure Sensor

A piezoresistive pressure sensor with a beam-membrane-dual-island structure is developed for micro-pressure monitoring in the field of aviation, which requires great sensitivity and overload resistance capacity. The design, fabrication, and test of the sensor are presented in this paper. By analyzin...
