Basic Sensor Architecture

a = 4,32 mm          b = 5,08 mm
c = 0,76 mm          d = 3,12 mm
e = 0,50 mm          f = 0,50 mm

Type 1 :                                      
 h = 0,75 mm ..... 1,50 mm
m = 100 µm .....  650 µm

Type 2 :                                     
h = 1,35 mm ..... 1,50 mm
m =    20 µm  .....  650 µm  
Type 1:
The Membrane is on connection side. Total sensor
thickness varies, depending on measurement range
due to the membrane thickness which ranges from
100 µm  to 650 µm.		 Type 2:
The membrane is etched in the base wafer, 
therefore the total sensor height is independent
of the measurement range or the thickness of 
the membrane.
