  • Pressure sensor housing and configuration
    Patent number: 7597005
    Abstract: A pressure sensor housing and configuration is provided for a single-square-sensor (SSS) sensing die. A sensor includes a glass wafer hermetically bonded to the SSS chip. The SSS chip is then positioned between a header and a cover, which can be glued together using an epoxy, for example. A tube, such as a pyrex tube, is connected to the SSS chip through which pressure is sensed. After bonding the wafer to the SSS chip, a vacuum seal is created and thus less emphasis is placed on hermetically sealing the remainder of the sensor.
