A movable electrode structure is formed in a single sensor element, and this movable electrode structure can be displaced along two axes within a plane, and one axis outside the plane. A detecting fixed electrode is provided via a constant space with each of these detecting axes, and a change in capacitances between the movable electrodes and the fixed electrodes is detected. As a result, the acceleration components of the two axes, or the three axes are detected. The dynamic characteristic of the sensor is controlled based on the mass of the variable electrode, the structure and length of the beam for supporting the movable electrode, and also the ratio of the length to the section of this beam.
