  • Patent number: 11193843
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a capacitive pressure sensor. The capacitive pressure sensor can include a first substrate having a first surface and a second surface, a movable plate at a bottom of a first cavity recessed into the substrate from the first surface, and a second substrate bonded to the first substrate over the first surface. A second cavity is formed between the movable plate and the second surface. The second substrate includes a fixed plate disposed over the movable plate to form a capacitor. The second substrate further includes a third cavity between a surface of the fixed plate opposite to the movable plate and a surface of the second substrate opposite to the first substrate.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9170164
    Abstract: The invention discloses a capacitive pressure sensor and a method of fabricating the same. The capacitive pressure sensor includes a fixed plate configured as a back plate, a movable plate configured as diaphragm for sensing pressure, wherein a cavity is formed between the fixed plate and the movable plate, an isolation layer between the fixed plate and the movable plate and electrical contacts thereof for minimizing the leakage current, plurality of damping holes for configuring the contour of the fixed plate as the deflected diaphragm when pressure is exerted, a vent hole extending to the cavity having resistive air path for providing equilibrium to the diaphragm and an extended back chamber for increasing the sensitivity of the capacitive pressure sensor. The capacitive pressure sensor is also configured for minimizing parasitic capacitance.
