A pressure transducer, consisting of a peizojunction sensing element, has been developed for meauring both static and transient pressures. In the static mode of operation the calibration curve showed a ±1.5% FSO (full scale output) independent linearity, a 3% FSO hysteresis, and a repeatability of 0.5% FSO. Dynamically, the transducer exhibited a thermal sensitivity shift of 0.27% FSO/°C.
