Abstract
A pressure sensor for sensing pressure of a fluid includes a diaphragm flexure and a crystal retaining flexure. The diaphragm flexure is designed to exert imparted force on the crystal retaining flexure. The imparted force is proportional to fluid pressure exerted on the diaphragm flexure. The pressure sensor further includes a resonator having a round outer perimeter. A portion of the crystal retaining flexure is positioned between the diaphragm flexure and the resonator. The crystal retaining flexure is designed to exert a load on the resonator. The load results from the imparted force exerted on the crystal retaining flexure by the diaphragm flexure.
