Abstract: A pressure difference sensor includes a capsule, which has a ceramic capsule body. The capsule has a transducer seat in its interior, wherein there is arranged in the transducer seat a semiconductor pressure measuring transducer core, which has a measuring membrane body and at least one support body. The measuring membrane body is connected pressure-tightly with the at least one support body, which has a pressure inlet opening.

Abstract: A method for the manufacture of a platform having a membrane bed includes providing a platform body, which comprises silicon; and removing silicon material from a surface of the platform body by means of laser ablation. Preferably, this is followed by oxidizing the ablated surface and then etching the oxidized surface. In an example of the invention, a resulting pressure sensor comprises two platforms, each with a membrane bed having a contour for supporting a measuring membrane, wherein the contour essentially corresponds to a bend line of the measuring membrane.

Abstract: A pressure sensor includes a sensor body with a sensor chamber in the interior, at least a first separating membrane, forming a first separating membrane chamber connected with the sensor body. A measuring membrane divides the sensor chamber into two chamber portions. A pressure transfer liquid, with which the first separating membrane chamber, the first chamber portion and a channel therebetween are filled, in order to transfer a pressure to the measuring membrane; wherein the pressure sensor is specified for a temperature range between a minimum temperature and a maximum temperature, as well as for a pressure range.
