Abstract
AbstractThe paper reports the fabrication and characterization of a capacitive Microelectro Mechanical Systems pressure sensor based on through glass vias (TGV), which had a large dynamic range by operating in touch mode. The substrate with TGV offers the advantage of elimination of parasitic capacitances owing to the superior insulation property of glass. The fabrication process was introduced. In particular, anodic bonding was applied in high vacuum to realize the hermetic package to obtain large operating range and high sensitivity. The performance of the sensor with a sensitive diaphragm of 700 μm × 1400 μm was characterized in the pressure range from −80 to 180 kPa. The sensitivity was determined as 0.072 pF/kPa over the range of 160 kPa with a good linearity of 97%.
