full bridge linear
diaphragm pattern
OMEGA offers transducer quality, linear
diaphragm pattern strain gages for use
in pressure transducer designs. These
patterns have 4 strain gages mounted
onto a single carrier. The strain gages
in the center will go into tension, and the
outer 2 will go into compression. In the
pressure transducer design, a diaphragm
is clamped around the outer edge, and
subjected to a uniform pressure. Near
the center of the diaphragm the radial
and tangential strains will be positive,
and will be nearly equal. The radial strain
decreases and becomes negative as
you move away from the center toward
the outer edge. Midway between the
center and the outer edge the strain is at
its lowest and the leads/Solder Pads are
located in this low stress area. In these
patterns, there are 2 half-bridges.
Each half-bridge has a common lead/
Solder Pads.

to show the detail. The strain gages and
Gage 2-

labeled. The corners of the Wheatstone
bridge have been left open for the addition
of zero temperature compensation
resistors, and zero balance compensation
resistors if required. Several sizes
are available.

1/2 bridge linear diaphragm
The following types of linear diaphragm
strain gages can be used when
the bonding area is larger than the
diaphragm diameter. For example, if a
body has a flat surface with a diameter
of 1" onto which the strain gage is to
be bonded, but a 0.5" diameter hole is
drilled through the body leaving just a
thin layer of material, then this thin
0.5" diameter is the diaphragm. So
the strain gage grids are located above
the thin high stress area and the leads/
solder pads are over the solid part of the
body in the low stress area. This linear
diaphragm pattern has 2 strain gages
mounted onto a single carrier. These
types are used in pairs on a
0.5" diameter diaphragm. The strain
gage closer to center will go into
tension, and the outer gage will go into
compression. Near the center of the
diaphragm the radial and tangential
strains will be positive, and will be nearly
equal. The radial strain decreases and
becomes negative as you move away

of the diaphragm. The leads/solder
pads are in the low stress area over
thicker material. In this pattern, each
carrier piece has one half-bridge with a
common lead/solder pad. The corners
of the Wheatstone bridge have been
2 half-bridges mounted onto one carrier
piece, which can be used on a 0.28”
diameter diaphragm again where the
bonding area is larger. The grids are
placed, centered over the diaphragm,
and the leads/solder pads are over solid
material in a low stress area.
