Abstract In this work we conduct a number of finite element simulations using the MEMCAD 5.0 system to evaluate the effect of various geometrical and process parameters on the Wheatstone bridge piezoresistive pressure sensor. In particular, results are presented for the following design parameters: the location of the resistors relative to the diaphragm edge; the angular orientation of the resistors; the planar dimensions of the resistors; and finally, the effects of dopant concentration profile and associated junction depth as computed by the limited-diffusion model.

An improved piezoresistive pressure sensor is designed for harsh environment application. The highlight of this design is that the Wheatstone bridge circuit is put in lower surface of pressure diaphragm and sealed in the vacuum pressure cavity. The bridge circuit is led out by embedded Al electrodes on bonding surface. ANSYS software has been used to analyze the stress distribution of the diaphragm. By using the MEMS technology, the pressure sensor with the dimension of 1.5mm×1.5mm×500µm is fabricated. The performance of piezoresistive pressure sensor, including output, sensitivity, and nonlinearity, are investigated. The test results show that sensitivity is 20mV/V-MPa and maximum nonlinearity is 2.73%, which meet the requirements for the modern industry.

MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) are usually defined as highly miniaturized devices combining both electrical and mechanical components that are fabricated using integrated circuit batch processing techniques. Pressure sensors are usually manufactured using square or circular diaphragms of constant thickness in the order of few microns. In this work, a comparison between circular diaphragm and square diaphragm indicates that square diaphragm has better perspectives. A new method for designing diaphragm of the Piezoresistive pressure sensor for linearity over a wide pressure range (approximately double) is designed, simulated and compared with existing single diaphragm design with respect to diaphragm deflection and sensor output voltage.

The relative research of low range and high anti-overload piezoresistive pressure sensor is carried out in this paper and a new kind of sensor chip structure, the double ends-four beam structure, is proposed. Trough the analysis, the sensor chip structure designed in this paper has high sensitivity and linearity. The chip structure is specially suit for the micro-pressure sensor. The theoretical analysis and finite element analysis is taken in this paper, which provide important scientific basis for the pressure sensor development.
