20100218607ACCELERATION SENSOR - An acceleration sensor whose characteristics including sensitivity are less likely to change relative to disturbance force applied to a sensor chip. The acceleration sensor has a support frame, a weight supported within the support frame via flexible beams, semiconductor piezoresistance elements provided on the beams, and wiring interconnecting the piezoresistance elements. The acceleration sensor detects acceleration from changes in resistance of the piezoresistance elements. Stress damping sections are provided on those portions of the beams which exclude the portions where the piezoresistance elements are provided. Each stress damping section is symmetrical with respect to the point of intersection between the length center line of the beam and the width center line of the beam. When disturbance force is applied to a sensor element in the direction in which the entire each of the beams extends, the stress damping sections absorbs the disturbance force. Because stress imposed in the direction in which the entire each of the beams extends becomes minimally changeable, and the deformability of the beam also becomes difficult to change, and this reduces the change in the sensitivity of the acceleration sensor caused by disturbance force.09-02-2010
