Abstract: A sensor for detecting the pressure of a fluid has a sensor body having at least one first body part and one second body part. The first body part and the second body part are joined together in such a way that a first face of the first body part faces a first face of the second body part, at a distance therefrom. The pressure sensor has a circuit arrangement, which includes at least one first electrical circuit that extends at least in part in an area corresponding to a membrane portion and is configured for detecting an elastic flexure or deformation thereof.

Abstract: A sensor has a sensor body with a first face and a second face opposite to one another, and a circuit arrangement supported by the sensor body that includes a first electrical circuit pattern on the first face, a second electrical circuit pattern on the second face, connection means, which electrically connect the first circuit pattern to the second circuit pattern and has at least one through hole that extends axially between the two faces of the sensor body. A plurality of terminals are electrically connected to the first circuit pattern and/or the second circuit pattern. The at least one through hole is preferably closed at the second face of the sensor body via a closing member (30) having pre-formed body with a closing portion having a diameter, greater than a diameter, of the opening of the through hole at the second face of the sensor body.
