Abstract

Described herein is a miniaturized and ruggedized wafer level MEMS force sensor composed of a base and a cap. The sensor employs multiple flexible membranes, a mechanical overload stop, a retaining wall, and piezoresistive strain gauges.

Description

[0001] This application claims U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 926,472, filed January 13, 2014, U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 937,509, filed February 8, 2014, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 937,509, filed May 29, 2014. 62 / 004,264 entitlement. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to MEMS force sensing dies for converting force into strain, which is sensed by piezoresistive strain gauges. Background technique [0003] Prior art MEMS force dies are based on correlating an applied force to the center of a sensing diaphragm comprising four piezoresistive strain gauges. Contact pads are provided around the diaphragm, which makes existing force dies relatively large. Additionally, existing MEMS force dies are fragile, lack the robustness of other force sensing technologies such as force sensitive resistors, and are prone to shattering from the external environment. [0004] Therefore, there is a need in the related art for a small, low cost si...
