    Abstract

    We report an integrated monolithic micromechanical capacitive pressure sensor circuit based on novel method for fabricating pressure detecting vacuum cavities into buried oxide of SOI-wafer. The method allows fabricating the readout circuit with standard bulk CMOS process. The readout circuit of the pressure sensor is a low-power CMOS relaxation oscillator.
