Abstract

The operating principle of single-junction strain transistors is discussed. It is shown that the strain sensitivity of a single-junction transistor with a controlled p-n junction is an order of magnitude higher than that of a simple single-junction transistor. It is concluded that the proposed pressure transducer with a frequency output is of practical interest for the creation of devices with increased requirements for noise immunity and measurement accuracy of the information signal.
