Abstract

A differential pressure measuring transducer assembly including a measuring diaphragm formed of semiconductor material having gauge resistance elements on one surface thereof and a central boss area of large thickness and a peripheral support flange on the other surface thereof defining therebetween an annular portion of small thickness. The measuring diaphragm is attached at the peripheral support flange to a glass support member and a metallic support member formed with pressure conducting bores respectively communicating with each other. The metallic support member is formed of material having a Young's modulus substantially equal to that of the measuring diaphragm.
