Abstract:
1. A pressure sensor, having: a measuring cell, said measuring cell comprising a pressure sensitive element arranged on a front side of said measuring cell, on which pressure sensitive element a pressure (p) to be measured acts during operation, and an electromechanical transducer for converting a reaction of said pressure sensitive element into an electrical signal; a sensor electronics for receiving said electrical signal from said electromechanical transducer and for converting said electrical signal into a measured, electrical variable, said sensor electronics being arranged at a rear side of the measuring cell, and a cap connected with said measuring cell, which encloses said sensor electronics, and which exhibits at least one bushing, through which pass connection lines connected to said sensor; and a connection housing having a forwarding electronics arranged therein, wherein: the pressure sensor is coupled to said connection housing, said forwarding electronics being provided to further process the measured variables made available by said sensor electronics through said connection lines.
