DESCRIPTION
The MS7212-A2 is an absolute silicon micro-machined pressure sensor for harsh environment, with the pads on
one side. A vacuum reference cavity is sealed on top of the sensitive silicon membrane by the anodic bonding of
a glass cap. The pressure, applied on the backside, is converted in electrical signal by piezo-resistors implanted
in the silicon membrane. To improve the sensor stability, a drilled glass is bonded on the backside. As the
pressure port consists of glass and silicon, both stable in most of the chemicals, the MS7212-A2 is suitable for
media-resistive applications.
