PRESSURE SENSOR COMPONENTS HAVING MICROFLUIDIC CHANNELS

Abstract:

Methods, apparatuses and systems for providing pressure sensing components for apparatuses are disclosed herein. An example pressure sensing component may comprise: a pressure sensing element defining a microfluidic channel containing a pressure transfer fluid configured to absorb a pressure of a media applied to the pressure sensing element, wherein at least one dimension of the microfluidic channel is in a micrometer range; and a pressure measuring element in electronic communication with the pressure sensing element, wherein the pressure measuring element is configured to convert a pressure of a media absorbed by the pressure sensing element into a measurable electrical signal.
