Principle of Operation
The pressure sensing element is formed by diffusing semi-conductor strain gauges directly into the silicon diaphragm. Strain gauges are elements which change their resistance when they are deformed. The strain gauges are connected together to form a Wheatstone bridge circuit. When pressure is applied to the diaphragm, it deforms and stretches or compresses the strain gauges, which causes an imbalance in the bridge circuit, and a change in the output voltage.
