    Abstract

    We report a new capacitive pressure sensor and a read-out circuit to be integrated in a FFR catheter. The novelty presented in this work is based on two new components: (1) VTT ultra thin and narrow MEMS pressure sensor element and (2) a surface area optimized ASIC designed and implemented for pressure sensor readout and AD-Conversion. The laboratory measurement results of the MEMS pressure sensor with the ASIC correlate well with the calculated and simulated results.
