Problems solved by technology

However, although the piezoresistive sensor has already formed a product, the MEMS piezoresistive chip as its core has limited the application of the MEMS piezoresistive pressure sensor due to problems such as poor piezoresistive consistency, difficulty in controlling leakage current, and poor uniformity of pressure-sensing film thickness. A large number of applications

Abstract

The MEMS piezoresistive pressure sensor chip is one cup-shaped structure including one squared pressure-sensing film, peripheral support and four piezoresistors, which are in the maximum strain area of the pressure-sensing film constitute point bridge to sense pressure change. The piezoresistors are made by ion implantation technology and there is a circle of n+isolating area around each piezoresistor and aligning mark in the edge of the pressure-sensing film to monitor the thickness of the pressure-sensing film. Compared with conventional diffusion technology, the ion implantation technologyhas higher piezoresistor precision, lower zero input and lower zero temperature drift. The increased n+isolating area raises the long-term stability of chip, and the aligning mark makes the etching of the sensing film more controllable.
