sensors are, in general, capacitive type. Often, ceramic pieces of PZT material Acoustic
zirconate and lead titanate are used for the purpose. One such scheme is shown in Fig. 9.26.
pressure is transmitted to ceramic beam with the conical diaphragm. Holes in the diaphragm are
provided for equalizing average pressure. Back up plate prevents sag. Very small capacitive
microphones have also been developed for sound intensity measurement. Their appropriate
placement is a very important aspect. Figure 9.27 gives a schematic arrangement of the system where
dynamic sound pressure pa can be measured with static pressure p, acting as buffer.
