Abstract

A dynamic quantity sensor includes a first substrate and a second substrate. The first substrate has one surface, another surface opposite to the one surface, and a depressed portion defining a thin portion. The second substrate has one surface attached to the first substrate and a recessed portion disposed corresponding to the depressed portion. At least a part of a first projection line obtained by projecting the recessed portion is disposed outside of a second projection line obtained by projecting a boundary line between side walls of the depressed portion and the thin portion. The thin portion disposed inside the periphery of the recessed portion provides a film portion which is displaceable corresponding to a physical quantity applied to the film portion, and a region sandwiched between the film portion and a portion connected to the periphery of the recessed portion provides a stress release region.
