Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pressure sensors, and particularly to a high-sensitivity differential pressure ceramic capacitive sensor based on a dual electrode and a measurement method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, ceramic capacitive sensors have been widely used in the fields of industrial automation, automotive electronics, and new energy due to their characteristics such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and good long-term stability. Traditional ceramic capacitive pressure sensors mostly adopt a single electrode structure, and the electrode gap is changed by the deformation of the diaphragm under pressure, and then the capacitance change is detected. However, such a design has the following significant defects:
[0003] 1. Limited sensitivity: The sensitivity of a single electrode sensor is inversely proportional to the initial gap d0. To improve the sensitivity, d0 needs to be reduced, but it is difficult to achieve high-precision detection of small pressure differences (such as <1 kPa) due to processing accuracy and breakdown voltage limitations. For example, a Chinese patent proposed a thick film ceramic pressure sensor, but its linear error is still as high as ±0.5% FS, which is difficult to meet the requirements of high-precision scenarios.
[0004] 2. Weak anti-interference ability: Single capacitance measurement is easily affected by environmental factors such as temperature drift and electromagnetic noise, resulting in zero drift. The literature "Design of a Construction Site Safety Management System Based on the Internet of Things" in 2022 pointed out that the temperature drift coefficient of existing sensors generally exceeds 0.05% / °C under complex working conditions, affecting long-term stability.
[0005] 3. Lack of overpressure protection mechanism: Traditional sensors are easily damaged due to excessive deformation of the diaphragm under high pressure or impact loads. For example, a Chinese patent proposed to prevent overload by the diaphragm abutting against the base, but this passive protection method cannot dynamically limit the deformation and will sacrifice sensitivity.
[0006] 4. Single measurement algorithm: Existing technologies mostly rely on fixed calibration parameters and are difficult to adapt to multi-range or dynamic working conditions. Although the publicly disclosed technology "Intelligent Pipe Network Monitoring System" in 2023 introduced a data fusion algorithm, it did not solve the problem of real-time dynamic compensation of capacitance values.
[0007] In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a differential pressure ceramic capacitive sensor based on a dual electrode structure and a measurement method. Through dual electrode differential design, overpressure protection integration, and dynamic calibration algorithm, the sensitivity and reliability are significantly improved, filling the gap in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of the existing problems described above, the present invention is proposed.

[0043] A ceramic substrate (1), a first ceramic plate (1a) and a second ceramic plate (2a) fixed on both sides of the substrate;
[0044] A differential pressure sensitive diaphragm (3), located between the two ceramic plates, deforms under the action of pressures (P1, P2) on both sides;
[0045] A dual electrode structure, including a first capacitor (C1) and a second capacitor (C2) symmetrically distributed on both sides of the diaphragm.

[0057] A high-sensitivity differential pressure ceramic capacitive sensor based on a dual electrode and its measurement method, comprising the following steps:
[0058] S1. Collect the dual electrode capacitance values C1 and C2; specifically,
[0059] The capacitance values C1 and C2 of the dual electrode structure are collected in real time through a capacitance digital converter (CDC), where:
[0060] C1 is the capacitance value corresponding to the reduction of the gap (d1 = d0 - △d) after the diaphragm is affected by the pressure difference;
[0061] C2 is the capacitance value corresponding to the increase of the gap (d2 = d0 + △d) after the diaphragm is affected by the pressure difference;
[0062] The sampling frequency is ≥ 100 Hz to ensure the requirements for dynamic pressure detection.
[0063] S2. Calculate the compensation capacitances CCP and CCN according to the preset K range value; specifically,
[0064] According to the preset range coefficient K range (value range 1 to 8), dynamically calibrate the zero compensation capacitance according to the formula:
[0065]
[0066] Example: When K range = 2 and C1 = 0.28 pF, CCP = 0.28 / (2 × 0.07) = 2.
[0067] S3. Output the differential pressure measurement value through the differential formula ; specifically,
[0068] Substitute C1, C2, CCP, and CCN into the differential formula:
[0069]
[0070] The output result C date ∈[-223, 223 - 1], and is directly mapped to the differential pressure physical quantity (e.g., -223 corresponds to the minimum differential pressure, 223 - 1 corresponds to the maximum differential pressure).
[0071] S4. When Cdate When it exceeds the range of [-223, 223 - 1], the overvoltage protection mechanism is triggered. Specifically,
[0072] When C date exceeds the range of [-223, 223 - 1], it is determined as an overvoltage state, and the following actions are performed:
[0073] Cut off the excitation power supply through the control circuit and stop the capacitor acquisition;
[0074] Trigger the mechanical limit function of the second ceramic plate (2a) to make the diaphragm contact the ceramic plate, restricting the deformation amount △d ≦ △d max ;
[0075] Send an alarm signal (such as audible and visual alarm or remote notification) to the terminal device.
[0076] Dynamic calibration: The real-time calculation of CCP and CCN in step S2 eliminates zero drift and adapts to temperature changes (such as -40°C to 150°C);
[0077] K range has a value range of 1 to 8. By adjusting K range multi-range switching is achieved.
[0078] Specifically, multi-range adaptation: By adjusting K range the range is switched. For example, K range = 1 corresponds to 0 to 10 kPa, and K range = 8 corresponds to 0 to 1.25 kPa;
[0079] K range The selection is shown in Table 1:

[0093] The material of the convex structure is the same as that of the ceramic plate, and the surface is polished (roughness Ra ≤ 0.1 μm) to avoid scratching the diaphragm during contact.
[0094] Electronic protection linkage:
[0095] When C date exceeds the limit, the control circuit immediately cuts off the excitation voltage (typical value 5V) and disconnects the signal acquisition circuit through the MOSFET switch to prevent overload damage.
[0096] The alarm signal is output to the host computer through the CAN bus or RS-485 interface, supporting custom alarm thresholds (such as triggered by -230 or 230).
[0097] Dynamic calibration and temperature compensation are achieved, specifically,
[0098] Zero-point compensation algorithm:
[0099] In the sensor initialization stage, the C1 and C2 values in the state of no pressure difference are collected, and the initial
[0100]
[0101] is calculated and stored in the EEPROM.
