Abstract
An acceleration sensor capable of improving sensitivity is provided. In the acceleration sensor, although a solder fillet is formed in a lower end of a terminal electrode exposed from a covering portion, the covering portion suppresses the rise of the solder fillet. Due to this, the operation of the acceleration sensor is not easily limited by the solder fillet, and the acceleration sensor can generate electric charge which corresponds to a load more accurately. Therefore, the sensitivity of the acceleration sensor can be improved.
