Abstract

A method and apparatus are described for fabricating an exposed backside pressure sensor () which protects interior electrical components () formed on a topside surface of a pressure sensor transducer die () from corrosive particles using a protective gel layer () and molding compound (), but which vents a piezoresistive transducer sensor diaphragm () formed on a backside of the pressure sensor transducer die () through a vent hole () formed in an exposed die flag (), enabling the sensor diaphragm () to directly sense pressure variations without the influence of a protective gel.
