2025-03-04
A Monocrystalline Silicon Core Pressure Sensor is a high-precision pressure sensor that utilizes a single-crystal silicon (monocrystalline silicon) as its sensing element. These sensors are widely used in industrial, medical, and aerospace applications due to their accuracy, stability, and resistance to environmental factors.
Key Features:
High Sensitivity & Accuracy – Monocrystalline silicon provides excellent mechanical properties, ensuring high precision in pressure measurements.
Excellent Stability – Single-crystal silicon has minimal hysteresis and long-term drift, making it highly stable over time.
Wide Operating Range – These sensors can operate in extreme temperatures and harsh environments.
Low Power Consumption – They typically require minimal energy, making them suitable for battery-operated devices.
Corrosion & Fatigue Resistance – Silicon’s strong chemical stability enhances durability in challenging conditions.
Working Principle:
The sensor works based on the piezo-resistive effect in monocrystalline silicon. When pressure is applied, the silicon core undergoes deformation, causing a change in electrical resistance. This change is then converted into an electrical signal, which is further processed to determine the pressure.
Applications:
Industrial Automation (e.g., fluid pressure monitoring)
Aerospace & Automotive (e.g., fuel pressure sensors)
Medical Devices (e.g., blood pressure monitoring)
Environmental Monitoring (e.g., weather stations)
