Piezoresistive sensors: the pressure goes on

Abstract

Advancements in producing piezoresistive pressure sensors have opened up exciting new markets for these pressure determining devices. Up to 10 times more sensitive than the old transducers, and with response times as rapid as a millisecond, the new sensors are used in applications as diverse as automotive, hi‐fi, aerospace and medical equipment industries.
