Abstract

A diffusion bonded space-conserving integrated fluid delivery system which is particularly useful for gas distribution in semiconductor processing equipment. The disclosure includes an integrated fluid flow network architecture, which may include, in addition to a layered substrate containing fluid flow channels, various fluid handling and monitoring components. A capacitive dual electrode pressure sensor which is integrated into a multilayered substrate is described. The pressure sensor may be used as a gage relative to atmospheric pressure if desired for a particular application.
