[0019] In actual use, the housing 1 is connected to the pressure system, and the pressure directly acts on a surface of the substrate 3 close to the pressure interface, causing the substrate 3 to produce a slight deformation. The thick film resistor is printed on a surface of the substrate 3 away from the pressure interface, thereby connecting to form a Wheatstone bridge (closed bridge). Due to the piezoresistive effect of the varistor, the Wheatstone bridge generates a highly linear voltage signal that is proportional to the pressure and is also proportional to the excitation voltage, thereby obtaining the corresponding pressure data.

Further, the thickness setting of the first sealing ring 2 and the thickness setting of the second sealing ring 4 make the first sealing ring 2 and the substrate 3, and the second sealing ring 4 and the substrate 3 and the circuit board 5 contact more fully, thereby ensuring the sealing effect.
