摘要： A system for measuring a multiplicity of pressures as those experienced by a model in a wind tunnel is depicted. The system includes individual sensor devices which are connected to an electronics module. The sensors may be connected to the electronics module via a cable in a first embodiment. In an alternate embodiment, the sensors may be connected to the electronics module via a mating connector located therebetween. A memory component which stores compensation coefficients associated with each of the sensors may also be included in the system to correct errors associated with each sensor. The advantage of the various embodiments is that each sensor does not have any compensation stored thereon and thus, the sensors can be made very small to operate at very high temperatures without any loss of accuracy.

摘要： A novel flexible transducer structure is suitable for attaching to curved surface such as the leading edge of an aircraft wing. The structure comprises a thin flexible sheet of an insulating material with a leadless transducer secured to the sheet. The sheet is then placed over the curved surface and assumes the curvature of the surface. The transducer secured to the sheet provides an output of pressure according the pressure exerted on the sheet. The sheet basically is fabricated from a thin material such as Kapton and is flexible so as to assume the curvature of the surface with the transducer being exposed to pressure applied to the curved surface. The sensor in conjunction with the flexible sheet allows pressure to be measured without disturbing the air flow patterns of the measuring surfaces and because of its construction, is moisture resistant over a large variety of atmospheric conditions.

摘要： A piezoresistive sensor device and a method for making a piezoresistive device are disclosed. The sensor device comprises a silicon wafer having piezoresistive elements and contacts in electrical communication with the elements. The sensor device further comprises a contact glass coupled to the silicon wafer and having apertures aligned with the contacts. The sensor device also comprises a non-conductive frit for mounting the contact glass to a header glass, and a conductive non-lead glass frit disposed in the apertures and in electrical communication with the contacts. The method for making a piezoresistive sensor device, comprises bonding a contact glass to a silicon wafer such that apertures in the glass line up with contacts on the wafer, and filling the apertures with a non-lead glass frit such that the frit is in electrical communication with the contacts. The use of a lead free glass frit prevents catastrophic failure of the piezoresistive sensor and associated transducer in ultra high temperature applications.

摘要： An ultra high temperature hermetically protected transducer includes a sensor chip having an active area upon which is deposited piezoresistive sensing elements. The elements are located on the top surface of the silicon wafer chip and have leads and terminals extending from the active area of the chip. The active area is surrounded with an extending rim or frame. The active area is coated with an oxide layer which passivates the piezoresistive sensing network. The chip is then attached to a glass pedestal, which is larger in size than the sensor chip. The glass pedestal has a through hole or aperture at each corner. The entire composite structure is then mounted onto a high temperature header with the metallized regions of the header being exposed to the holes in the glass pedestal; a high temperature lead is then bonded directly to the metallized contact area of the sensor chip at one end. The leads are of sufficient length to extend into the through holes in the glass pedestal. A sealing cover is then attached to the entire composite sensor to hermetically seal all of the interconnections. The sealing cover is a glass structure, has a central aperture which corresponds to the aperture formed by the frame, allowing the active area of the sensor to be exposed to the pressure medium. The sealing cover is bonded to the periphery of the rim and to the glass supporting pedestal.

摘要： A process wherein plurality of individual device layers having semiconductor material conductive regions extending therethrough are bonded together before or after one or more circuit elements have been fabricated on each layer. Groups of device layers are formed by electrochemically anodizing a wafer of semiconductor material. The wafer is rendered totally porous except for a series of non-porous regions extending therethrough. The wafer is then oxidized and densifted to result in a wafer having a plurality of electrically isolated extended contacts. A plurality of wafers are processed in this manner. A variety of integrated circuit devices are then formed on the surface of each wafer. Once the processing of all individual wafers is completed, each wafer is bonded to another, with the extending contact aligned to electrically interconnect each device layer. The wafers are then diced to provide a plurality of multi-level integrated circuit structures.
