Symbols and Terms

1)

This is the maximal allowed voltage, which may be applied to the piezoresistive bridge circuit without damage.

2)

conditions like gluing, wire bonding etc, the die has to be tested over the operating temperature range by the customer

fully assembled. For design verification and process control samples are tested over a reduced measuring temperature

3)

will not affect the performance of the pressure sensor dies.

4)

5)

6)

tested at room temperature on samples by increasing the applied pressure until the diaphragm is destroyed.

8)

The total bridge resistance is defined between pad X5 and X2 (see the dimensional drawing in this data sheet) of the

closed piezoresistive bridge circuit. The total bridge resistance is in a good approximation the output impedance of the

piezoresistive bridge circuit. This parameter is tested completely on a wafer (wafer level test measurement).
