Abstract
A capacitive pressure sensor was realized by using low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) materials and technology. The paper will present the design considerations of a sensing element, and compares the experimental data to the theoretical design, with the aim to improve the sensor´s characteristics. Special points of attention are the linearity, the temperature behaviour, the pressure media and the behaviour of the reference pressure medium.
