THERMALLY-MATCHED PIEZORESISTIVE ELEMENTS IN BRIDGES

A micromechanical pressure sensor for measuring a pressure differential includes a diaphragm having an inner region and two edge regions, one opposite the other with respect to the inner region. Two or more piezoresistive resistance devices are on the diaphragm, at least one in each of the inner and...

description A micromechanical pressure sensor for measuring a pressure differential includes a diaphragm having an inner region and two edge regions, one opposite the other with respect to the inner region. Two or more piezoresistive resistance devices are on the diaphragm, at least one in each of the inner and edge region, and are configured to be electrically connected in a bridge circuit. The micromechanical pressure sensor is configured so that an operating temperature of the one or more piezoresistive resistance devices in the inner region is substantially the same as an operating temperature of the one or more piezoresistive resistance devices in at least one of the edge regions throughout a full operating range such that an error of the micromechanical pressure sensor output resulting from self-heating is less than if the micromechanical pressure sensor were not configured to maintain the operating temperatures substantially the same.
