  • Abstract
    A thin-diaphragm diffused piezoresistive pressure sensor has been developed for biomedical instrumentation using monolithic IC techniques. Anisotropic etching affords large-area, 5μ thick diaphragms with high yield, and simple temperature compensation eliminates residual temperature drift.
