Abstract
A pressure sensor die assembly for a differential pressure sensor comprises a base substrate including a first overpressure stop structure on a first surface, and a diaphragm structure coupled to the first surface. The diaphragm structure comprises a first side with a cavity section that includes a first cavity and a second cavity surrounding the first cavity, and a second side opposite from the first side. A pressure sensing diaphragm portion is defined by the first cavity and is located over the first overpressure stop structure. An overpressure diaphragm portion is defined by the second cavity. A top cap coupled to the second side of the diaphragm structure includes a second overpressure stop structure. The overpressure stop structures are each sized to support substantially all of a strained area of the pressure sensing diaphragm portion at an increasing overpressure on the first or second sides of the diaphragm structure.
