    Abstract: The pressure sensor is integrated in a SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) substrate using the insulating layer as a sacrificial layer, which is partly removed by chemical etching to form the diaphragm. To fabricate the sensor, after forming the piezoresistive elements (10) and the electronic components (4, 6-8) integrated in the same chip, trenches (26) are formed in the upper wafer (23) of the substrate and extending from the surface to the layer of insulating material (22); the layer of insulating material (22) is chemically etched through the trenches (26) to form an opening (31) beneath the diaphragm (27); and a dielectric layer (25) is deposited to outwardly close the trenches (26) and the opening (31). Thus, the process is greatly simplified, and numerous packaging problems eliminated.

    Abstract: Described herein is a read/write transducer for a hard disk drivewith dual actuation stage, comprising at least one hard disk and at least one suspension carrying the read/write transducer. The read/write transducer comprises a supporting body having a substantially parallelepipedal shape, a read/write head arranged on a front face of the supporting body, and a grating defined on one of the side faces of the supporting body during the process of manufacture of the read/write transducer. The grating enables measurement of the position of the read/write transducer with respect to the corresponding suspension in an optical way using a laser transmitter emitting and directing towards the grating a laser beam, and a laser receiver arranged to intercept the laser beam reflected by the grating and outputting a position signal on the basis of which it is possible to calculate, in a simple way, the position of the read/write transducer with respect to the corresponding suspension.

    Abstract: The inkjet print head comprises an ink drop emission mini-gun (30) and a drop emission sensor (4) integrated in a chip of semiconductor material. The mini-gun is formed by an ink chamber (21) and a nozzle (23) in communication with the ink chamber and the drop emission sensor includes a resistive element (4) arranged in a position adjacent to the ink chamber (21). The resistance of the resistive element (4) depends on the pressure exerted thereon, so that when the mini-gun emits an ink drop, it is subjected to a recoil movement which causes a change of pressure and hence of resistance in the resistive element; this change in resistance may be detected through a suitable circuitry (29) to identify whether and when a drop of ink has been emitted.
