This document describes a miniature low-cost extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer for measuring low pressures. It consists of a diaphragm attached to an optical fiber that changes the air gap when subjected to pressure variations. This allows accurate measurement of pressures below 1 mmHg. The sensor is smaller, lighter, and lower cost than existing pressure sensors. It was tested in burette and heart simulator experiments demonstrating high accuracy below 1 mmHg and stability over long periods.
