Embodiment Construction
[0019] figure 1 A longitudinal cross-sectional view of the sensor 10 according to the present invention for sensing the pressure of a fluid medium is shown. The sensor 10 may, for example, be configured to sense the pressure of fuel in the fuel line of the internal combustion engine or the pressure of exhaust gas in the exhaust gas flow of the internal combustion engine. Only a part of the components of the sensor 10 are shown here. Other components such as the housing, the screw, the housing base, and the connecting plug are not shown.
[0020] The sensor 10 includes a sensor element 12. The sensor element 12 is a silicon chip. The sensor 12 has a front surface 14 and a back surface 16. A recess 18 is formed in the front surface 14. The section of the sensor 12 above the recess 18 with a reduced material thickness forms a deformable membrane 20. A plurality of piezoresistive elements (not shown in detail) in the form of a measuring bridge, for example in the form of a Whea...
