Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure measuring cell comprising a base body, a membrane that is connected to the base body, thus forming a measuring chamber. During operation, the membrane is subjected to a deflection which is dependent on a pressure that is to be measured. The cell also comprises a membrane bed, formed by a surface of the base body that faces the membrane, at least one electrode being mounted on said bed. Said electrode, together with a counter-electrode that is mounted on the membrane, forms a capacitor, whose capacitance represents a measurement for the deflection of the membrane. The measuring cell is characterized in that the electrode is electrically connected through the base body and that the measuring chamber has a smooth surface in the contact zone, said surface having a contact pin that is guided in a bore through the base body.

Abstract: A transmitter having an improved current output is provided, having: a sensor (1), which serves to register a physical quantity (X) and to convert such to an electrical quantity; electronics, which converts the electrical quantity into a measurement signal and makes such available at an electrical current output in the form of a signal current (I) corresponding to the physical quantity; and a pick-up unit having a magnetoresistive element, whose resistance changes as a function of the magnetic flux (?) produced by the signal current (I).

Abstract: Disclosed is a transmitter which achieves a permanently high security standard in an inexpensive manner. The inventive transmitter comprises a set of identically built sensors (1, 21, 23) for measuring a physical parameter, a set of electronic circuits (5), each of which is assigned to a sensor (1) and conditions an electrical signal that is generated by the assigned sensor (1) and corresponds to the physical parameter, and an output unit (17, 25) to which the conditioned electrical signals of all sensors (1) are fed. Said output unit (17, 25) generates a measuring signal from the conditioned electrical signals, makes said measuring signal available for further evaluation, processing, and/or display, and generates information about the plausibility of the measuring signal and/or information about the operability of the individual sensors (1).
