Abstract
A method and apparatus for configuring a pressure sensor. A homogeneous piece of metal can be provided. A pressure port and a machined diaphragm are integrated onto the homogeneous piece of metal, wherein the machined diaphragm is connected to the pressure port. The machined diaphragm can be configured utilizing Advanced Thick Film (ATF) technology, thereby providing a high-pressure pressure sensor for use in high-pressure sensing application based on the pressure port and the machined diaphragm and related pressure sensor components thereof.
