<p>A pressure sensor (e.g., a condenser microphone) includes a plate having a fixed electrode, a diaphragm having a moving electrode positioned opposite to the fixed electrode, and a support, wherein the diaphragm is subjected to displacement due to pressure variations applied thereto, and the support has a first interior wall forming a first cavity, in which the end portions of the plate are fixed, and a second interior wall, in which a step portion is formed in the thickness direction of the diaphragm in relation to the first interior wall and which forms a second cavity whose cross-sectional area is larger than the cross-sectional area of the first cavity in the plane direction of the diaphragm. The first and second cavities can be redesigned to communicate with each other via a passage, whereby it is possible to improve both of low-frequency characteristics and high-frequency characteristics in the pressure sensor.</p> |
