Tutorial Pressure sensor

Modules:

1 Bulk micromachining
2 Surface micromachining
3 Bonding
4 Fabrication of a capacitive pressure sensor

Summary

The pressure sensor is a type of MEMS device. What it is , how it functions, how many types of pressure sensor exist, all these questions are answered in the Microsystems course.
Besides the general technology steps, there are also a few specific methods used for fabricating MEMS, such as: surface micromachining, bulk micromaching, bonding, etc. All these will be presented in the modules of this tutorial. Also, the process steps for fabricating a pressure sensor are shown.
