Abstract: A sensor with built-in circuits can be improved in the stability of the operation or characteristics. A circuit region and a sensor region are covered by a passivation film. The sensor region is partially covered by the passivation film. The sensor region and circuit region are protected by the passivation film, and an effect of the passivation film on the mechanical displacement of a diaphragm portion can be alleviated so that the sensor with built-in circuits may be improved in the stability of the operation or characteristics.

Abstract: Dynamic quantitative displacement is converted stably and straight into voltage (D.C. output) by using a high speed detection driving frequency without restricting a response of an operational amplifier. When a dynamic quantity detection electrostatic capacitance changes according to a dynamic quantity, electric charges stored in this element and in a reference electrostatic capacitance become unbalanced to produce a difference value, and an output of an operational amplifier changes according to the difference in electric charge quantity. However, the output becomes finally stable when the electric charges in the dynamic quantity detection electrostatic capacitance and in the reference electrostatic capacitance become equal. The output is proportional to a reciprocal of the dynamic quantity detection electrostatic capacitance and it is a D.C. voltage. Further, output without depending on integration feedback capacitance (feedback condenser) CF can be obtained.
