In a pressure sensor comprising a diaphragm formed on a portion of a chip made of semiconductor material and that senses pressure on the diaphragm by electrically converting the displacement corresponding to that pressure, the provision of the diaphragm with an aspect ratio of at least a size such that the derivative of the characteristic curve of the allowable pressure resistance of the pressure sensor, defined by setting the aspect ratio obtained by dividing the length of one side of the diaphragm by the thickness of the diaphragm as the horizontal axis and by setting the allowable pressure resistance of the pressure sensor as the vertical axis, becomes nearly zero, enables a pressure sensor having high sensitivity and high pressure resistance.
