1. Traditional piezoresistive principle.

The piezoresistive principle is to measure the change in pressure by using the change in the resistance value of the strain gauge. When pressure is applied to the strain gauge, the strain gauge deforms, causing its resistance value to change. By measuring the change in the resistance value, the amount of pressure acting on the strain gauge can be calculated. Pressure sensors on the conventional piezoresistive principle typically consist of an elastic sensing element and a strain gauge. When pressure is applied to an elastic sensitive element, the strain gauge deforms accordingly, changing its resistance value.
