CONSTITUTION:A strain of a diaphragm influenced by pressure is tansmitted to a strain gauge, and varies a resistance of a bridge resistor 10. Especially, resistances r1-r4 are varied to a compressed state, its resistance value is decreased, and resistances R1-R4 are varied to an expanded state and its resistance value is increased. When a strain is generated in this pressure detecting circuit, a balance of the bridge resistor 10 is varied, a resistance varied portion of each bridge is added, input voltage of a non-inversion input terminal of an operational amplifier OP1 is increased, and an increased portion against a reference voltage value Vz is obtained as an output from its output terminal. In this way, the sensitivity is raised and the pressure detecting circuit is made simple and inexpensive without damaging a temperature characteristic of a metallic strain gauge.

As a pressure sensor, there are two strain gauges on the diaphragm.
A bridge circuit is generally used, which converts the strain caused in the diaphragm due to pressure into an electrical signal.This strain gauge is made of metal wire, There are two types of strain gauges: one is a metal strain gauge using a continuous metal film or a discontinuous metal film, and the other is a semiconductor strain gauge using a cermet or a semiconductor.

However, while metal strain gauges have extremely excellent temperature characteristics, their sensitivity is inferior.On the other hand, semiconductor strain gauges have several dozen times the sensitivity of metal strain gauges, but on the other hand, they have temperature characteristics unique to semiconductors. In this famous test, a temperature compensation circuit was essential. In addition, this temperature compensation circuit has the disadvantage that it is very complex and expensive, depending on the usage of the pressure sensor.

Therefore, in order to make full use of the excellent temperature characteristics of the metal strain gauge and further compensate for its sensitivity, it is conceivable to provide an amplifier to amplify the entire signal to a predetermined level. This amplifier is generally an operational amplifier, but the output of a metal strain gauge is small and is usually used as a sensor for automobiles.
The ones used for this purpose can only obtain an output of several tens of mV. Furthermore, since the input value required by various control devices for automobiles is several volts, the amplification factor of the amplifier must be about a few digits to about 100 times. However, these operational amplifiers have temperature drift, and this temperature drift is also amplified by the above amplification factor (there are some with small temperature drift, but they are extremely expensive), and the operating temperature of automotive sensors is - Considering that the temperature is about -40 to 120°C, there is a drawback that the influence of this temperature drift becomes extremely large at high temperatures, and the accuracy of use deteriorates.
