Abstract: An impedance sensor and an electronic apparatus using the same are provided. The impedance sensor includes an impedance-bridge circuit, a compensation circuit, and a signal processing circuit. The impedance-bridge circuit has an input side and an output side, and configured to generate a first impedance variation in response to a physical pressure. The compensation circuit is coupled to the input side of the impedance-bridge circuit in parallel, and configured to generate a second impedance variation in response to an environment temperature. The signal processing circuit respectively detects the first and the second impedance variations, and accordingly generates a first sensing signal indicating the first impedance variation and a second sensing signal indicating the second impedance variation, so as to compensate a temperature shift part of the first sensing signal by the second sensing signal and accordingly generate a pressure detection signal.

Abstract: A pressure sensor package includes a substrate providing a connection port, a support member mounted on the substrate by compression molding and having a gap cut through opposing top and bottom walls thereof to expose the connection port, a sensor chip mounted on the support member and electrically connected to the connection port, an encapsulating cover covered on the support member and defining therein an accommodation chamber that accommodates the sensor chip and a through hole that is disposed in communication with the accommodation chamber for the passing of an external signal therethrough to the sensor chip. Thus, the support member steadily carries the sensor chip and isolates stress arising from the external environment, thereby reducing stress interference with the sensor chip and enhancing the overall performance of the pressure sensor package.
