Fig. 3 shows image of overview of Piezo-resistive pressure sensor chip. The diaphragm (blue circle of a Fig. a) is a thin disc, formed on a silicon wafer and deformed by pressure difference between upper and lower. Piezoresistors (green part of Fig. b & Fig. c) are arranged on four points of this thin diaphragm.

In Fig. b, the target pressure (green arrow) is equal to atmospheric pressure, so it is a condition that does not bend the diaphragm. In Fig. c, the target pressure (Pink arrow) is bigger than atmospheric pressure (Light blue arrow), so the diaphragm is pushed up. Under this condition, the deflection of the diaphragm changes the piezoresistance's value on the upper surface of diaphragm. Copyright 2013 OMRON Corporation. All Rights Reserved. 5 [2SMPP-02] Application Note No.MDMK-13-0184 Fig. 4 shows how to convert from piezoresistance value change to output voltage change. If the pressure applied to the upper and lower diaphragms are balanced, the bridge output voltage V0 is represented by formula 1.1. In theory V0 is zero if R1=R2=R3=R4, as the voltage is generated by a slight variation in manufacturing , and is defined as Voffset . Upon deflection of the diaphragm, pressure equilibrium is broken and each of the resistances of the piezoresistive are changed from R to R ± ⊿ R. Piezoresistive change in the resistance value which is arranged diagonally as shown by the arrows in the figure has the same tendency (increase or decrease). In case of the condition R=R1=R2=R3=R4 formula 1.1 applies, however when the piezoresistive value has changed from R to R ± ⊿ R formula 1.2 applies. This voltage is called the span voltage, by supplying a constant current I, the amount of change can be detected as a voltage V0 resistance value change amount(⊿ R). Since there are manufacturing variations in the piezoresistive R1/R2/R3/R4 as described above, the approximate expression of the span voltage is found in formula 1.3.

For example, if Gain = 21 then Ref = 1.0 [V], if Gain=201 then Ref = 1.5 [V] would be needed. Copyright 2013 OMRON Corporation.

In this case, Ref voltage is connected to 1.0 [V]. This is a result of monitoring the output Vout shown in Fig. 7. 2SMPP-02 Reference Circuit Result at 100uA/Gain=21 Output Voltage[V] 1.1 1 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.0 Fig.9 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 Rated Pressure[kPa] 5.0 6.0 7.0 Output characteristic of 2SMPP-02 after Gain=21 times In this result, it has only 0.3% of an error, even if it compares with the ideal Span voltage. The ideal Span voltage is 123mV [=7kPa / 37kPa x 31mV x 21] and actual Span voltage is 122.6mV at the condition of 0kPa to 7kPa. This means our recommended circuit can be used for even low pressure range. Copyright 2013 OMRON Corporation.
