Summary :

A new silicon capacitive pressure sensor with center clamped diaphragm is presented. The sensor has a silicon-glass structure and is fabricated by batch-fabrication processes. Since deformed diaphragm has a doughnut-shape, parallel-like displacement is realized and therefore better linearity of 0.7% which is half of the conventional flat diaphragm sensor is obtained. It is clarified both analytically and experimentally that the capacitive pressure sensor with center clamped diaphragm is advantageous in terms of linearity.
