  • Abstract
    A review of the latest advances in thick-film sensors is presented. Examples are given of applications in the major signal domains. A brief history of the technology is presented and it is shown how thick-films can be combined with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) to produce robust and cost-effective solutions to sensing problems. Some specific examples of mechanical transducers developed in the author´s own laboratories are presented.
