<p>A semiconductor physical quantity sensor includes (i) a semiconductor substrate having a first conductive type, (ii) a diaphragm portion disposed in the semiconductor substrate, (iii) a sensing portion disposed in the diaphragm portion, (iv) a well layer having a second conductive type, and (v) a back flow prevention element. The well layer is disposed in a surface portion of the semiconductor substrate, and corresponds to the diaphragm portion. The back flow prevention element is provided by a MOSFET, a JFET, a MESFET, or a HEMT. The back flow prevention element includes two second conductive diffused portions and a gate electrode. The back flow prevention element is arranged on a first electrical wiring, which provides a passage for applying a predetermined voltage to the well layer from an external circuit. The back flow prevention element turns on based on a voltage applied to the gate electrode.</p> |
