PRESSURE SENSOR AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A pressure sensor is provided with a sensor chip having a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer wherein a pressure-sensitive region is a diaphragm. In the pressure-sensitive region, an open section is formed on the first semiconductor layer, and a recessed section is formed on the second semiconductor layer in the pressure-sensitive region. The recessed section on the second semiconductor layer is larger than the opening section on the first semiconductor layer. An insulating layer may be arranged between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer.
