A compact absolute and gage pressure transducer consists of two sensors made from the same silicon wafer and adjacent each other on the wafer. The transducer contains a common header with a first and a second input port for receiving a first and a second pressure, respectively. The second port is directed through a reference tube into the hollow of a housing to apply pressure from the reference tube to the common sensor arrangement. The first port is directed from another surface of the housing to direct pressure to both sensor devices. One sensor operates as a gage sensor producing an output proportional to the difference between input pressures and the other sensor produces an absolute output. The sensor chip is associated with a sensor header which includes an alignment pin extending therefrom, and a guide plate with an aperture for accommodating an alignment pin.
