Description

Shabana S and Sumit Kumar Jindal present a 2026 design study for a micro pressure sensor that touches down twice as pressure climbs. Such MEMS sensors, tiny devices on silicon, serve medicine, cars, and aircraft. A touch design gains sensitivity and straight-line response when the moving diaphragm lands on the base in stages.

The design pairs a round flexible diaphragm with an M-shaped silicon base, which widens the contact zone. Small-bend theory models the diaphragm so the output stays near linear. Math formulas for capacitance and for both kinds of sensitivity were derived and run in MATLAB, while a physics package checked the bending shape. The notch size, which sets where touch begins, proved key to sensitivity. The authors pitch the sensor for cutting-edge sensing roles that need accuracy and durability in a small die.
