초록

최근 계측기의 소형화, 전자화에 따라 차압식 유량계의 경우 기존에 기계가공을 통해 개발하던 센서부를 전자식 MEMS 차압센서로 대체하려는 많은 노력이 있으나, MEMS 차압센서의 경우 고압이 인가시 실리콘 다이아프램의 파괴 및 센서의 접합부의 파괴가 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 proof pressure 이상의 압력에서 센서의다이아프램이 파괴되지 않는 구조를 제안하였으며, 그에 따른 차압식 압력센서를 설계 및 제작하였다. 센서 동작압력(0- 3 bar)의 3배 이상의 압력에서 센서의 동작특성을 평가하였다. 개발된 센서는 3.0×3.0 mm이며, 0~3 bar 사이의 압력에서LCR meter (HP 4284a)로 측정한 결과 3.67 pF at 0bar, 5.13 pF at 3 bar를 나타내었으며, 센서의 동작압력(0-3 bar)에서0.37%의 hysteresis를 나타내는 압력센서를 개발하였다.

Abstract

In this paper, we have developed a differential pressure flow sensor designed as a single capacitive type. And the sensor was fabricated using a MEMS process. Differential pressure flow sensors are the most commonly used sensors for industrial applications. The sensing diaphragm and bonding joint of the MEMS pressure sensor are easily broken at high pressure. In this paper, we proposed a structure in which the diaphragm of the sensor was not broken at a pressure exceeding the proof pressure, and the differential pressure sensor was designed and manufactured accordingly. The operating characteristics of the sensor were evaluated at a pressure three times higher than the sensor operating pressure (0-3 bar). The developed sensor was 3.0×3.0 mm and measured with a LCR meter (HP 4284a) at a pressure between 0 and 3 bar. It showed 3.67 pF at 0 bar and 5.13 pF at 3 bar. The sensor operating pressure (0-3 bar) developed a pressure sensor with hysteresis of 0.37%.
