Abstract

A force sensor comprises a first substrate, a second substrate, a third substrate, and a package body. The first substrate includes a fixed electrode, at least one first conductive contact, and at least one second conductive contact. The second substrate is disposed on the first substrate and electrically connected to the first conductive contact of the first substrate. The second substrate includes a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) element corresponding to the fixed electrode. The third substrate is disposed on the second substrate and includes a pillar connected to the MEMS element. The package body covers the third substrate. The foregoing force sensor has better reliability.
