Problems solved by technology

[0003] The above technical solution has its inherent shortcomings. When the main board where the chip is located is deformed, the external stress is transmitted upward from the substrate to the pressure sensitive film, and the piezoresistive pressure sensitive film itself is very sensitive to stress. MEMS pressure Sensor output can vary with stress, degrading pressure sensor performance

Abstract

The invention discloses an MEMS pressure sensor and a manufacturing method of the MEMS pressure sensor. A sensitive membrane layer which forms a vacuum chamber with a substrate is arranged above the substrate. The sensitive membrane layer comprises a middle sensitive portion and a supporting portion which is arranged at the edge of the sensitive portion and supported on the substrate, wherein the plane where the sensitive portion is located is lower than the supporting portion and is connected with the supporting portion via an inclining portion so that the sensitive portion, the inclining portion and the supporting portion could form a step-shaped structure. According to the MEMS pressure sensor, the sensitive portion, the inclining portion and the supporting portion in the sensitive membrane layer forms a step-shaped sinking structure, so that the internal stress of the sensitive membrane layer could be completely released in the process of depositing the sensitive membrane layer. Because the elastic coefficient of the sensitive membrane layer is low, relative higher sensitivity could be obtained. In addition, the sensitive portion is connected with the supporting portion via the inclining portion, so the sensibility of the sensitive portion to the change of the stress could be greatly reduced so as to improve signal to noise ratio of a chip and improve the performance of the pressure sensor.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of sensors, and more specifically, to a MEMS pressure sensor; the invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the MEMS pressure sensor. Background technique [0002] In the current technical solutions, MEMS pressure sensors mainly include capacitive and piezoresistive. Among them, the piezoresistive pressure sensor is made of piezoresistive strips on the pressure sensitive film by ion implantation to form a Wheatstone bridge. , the pressure sensitive membrane is flat. When the external pressure changes, the pressure-sensitive membrane will deform upward or downward, causing the resistance of the piezoresistor strip to change, so that the external pressure change can be detected through the Wheatstone bridge. [0003] The above technical solution has its inherent shortcomings. When the main board where the chip is located is deformed, the external stress is transmitted upward from the substrate to the pressur...
