Piezoresistive pressure sensor

A piezoresisitve pressure sensor having a diaphragm of silicon nitride with a stressed resistor under the edge of the diaphragm in a single crystal supporting wafer. The signal is derived from the stress in the silicon where the diaphragm attaches to the edge of the opening etched through the silico...
