2. Funktionsprinzipien
Ein Drucksensor verwendet im Allgemeinen einen Zwerchfell, auf dem Dehnungsmessstreifen gebildet sind, und misst seine Dehnung (oder Durchbiegung) aufgrund der aufgebrachten Kraft über den Zwerchfell-Bereich.
Unser Unternehmen, NIDEC COMPONENTS EUROPE GmbH, bietet zwei Arten von Drucksensoren als Messverfahren an: ein Verfahren mit einem Diffusionshalbleiter (Silikon-MEMS) und ein Verfahren mit einem Dünnschichtmessgerät mit SUS-Membran. Jeder Typ hat seine eigenen Eigenschaften, und wir verfügen über eine Vielzahl von Drucksensorprodukten, indem wir diese beiden Methoden entsprechend der Anwendung und den Marktanforderungen richtig anwenden.
Schauen wir uns das Funktionsprinzip für jeden Typ genauer an.
Ⅰ. Silikon-MEMS (Si-MEMS)



Querschnittszeichnung
Die vier Dehnungswiderstände, die wie in der Abbildung unten gezeigt angeschlossen sind, bilden eine Wheatstone-Brückenschaltung. Diese Brückenschaltung wird mit konstantem Strom (nominell 1,5 mA DC) betrieben. Bei Druckbeaufschlagung erhöhen sich die Widerstandswerte von R2/R3, während die von R1/R4 abnehmen, was zu einer Ungleichheit in der Brückenschaltung und einer Spannungsdifferenz am Ausgangsende führt. Diese Spannungsdifferenz wird zu einer dem Druck proportionalen Ausgangsspannung. Auch beim Anlegen von Unterdruck werden die Polaritäten ebenfalls in die gleiche Orientierung wie bei Anlegen eines Überdrucks umgekehrt.
Zur Erläuterung der Druck- und Leistungskennlinie ist die Verformung des Zwerchfells in der rechtenim weiter oben stehenden Zwerchfell-Querschnittszeichnung vergrößert dargestellt, wobei der Verformungsgrad jedoch nur wenige Mikrometer beträgt. Daher ist die mechanische Verformung des Zwerchfells optisch kaum zu erkennen.
Ⅱ. Dünne-Schichten-Sensor (mit SUS-Zwerchfell)

Querschnittszeichnung
Ⅱ. Dünne-Schichten-Sensor (mit SUS-Zwerchfell)
In einem Dünne-Schichten-Sensor, wie bei Si-MEMS, sind vier Dünne-Schichten-Widerstände verbunden, wie im folgenden Schema gezeigt, um eine Wheatstone-Brückenschaltung zu bilden. Die Dünne Schichten Messwiderstände werden mit konstanter Spannung angesteuert. Der SUS-Zwerchfell verformt sich bei Druckeinwirkung, die auf dem Zwerchfell gebildeten Dünne Schichten Widerstände verformen sich, die dann jede Änderung des Widerstandswertes des Messgerätes erkennen. Somit kann ein Spannungssignal proportional zum Druck erhalten werden.
