A semiconductor pressure sensor has a sealing reference pressure chamber container formed by a cap and a metal bottom plate, a semiconductor pressure sensitive diaphragm to which pressure to be measured is applied on the side of the diaphragm opposite to the inside space of said container, and a circuit substrate having a circuit connected to a strain gauge mounted on the pressure sensitive diaphragm. The diaphragm is mounted to said bottom plate, and the circuit substrate is fixed to one side of a metal plate having a thermal expansion factor approximately equal to the thermal expansion factor of the circuit substrate material. The other side of the metal plate is fixed to said bottom plate only over a relatively small area. The arrangement reduces thermal stress to the circuit substrate.
