Abstract
A pressure sensor for sensing pressure of a fluid includes a diaphragm separator having a protrusion. The pressure sensor further includes a resonator, where the protrusion is in contact with the resonator on a first side of the resonator. The protrusion is positioned to exert an imparted force onto the resonator. The pressure sensor also includes a backing diaphragm positioned on a second side of the resonator. The backing diaphragm exerts a counter force onto the resonator in response to the imparted force.
