Claim:
A pressure probe, comprising: a longitudinal tubular probe housing symmetrically disposed about a central axis and having an ultra miniature conical front end and an opened back end, a plurality of apertures disposed about said front end, each aperture having an opening communicating with the hollow of said housing; a plurality of ultra small leadless transducers, each comprised of a leadless SOI sensor and a header enclosing each transducer, the leadless sensor, being extremely thin and small is affixed onto the header, to provide a header transducer combination, said header being of a shape and size to be positioned in an associated aperture of said probe housing; and at least one lead coupled to said header pin and directed through said aperture into said hollow of said probe housing, wherein the extremely small size of the leadless transducers enables the apertures in the probe to be extremely small, spaced closely together, and appropriately angled of the air flow.
