Abstract
A particulate matter sensor is disposed in an exhaust line of an exhaust system, and configured to sense particulate matter included in exhaust gas. The particulate matter sensor includes: a first substrate, a second substrate, and a third substrate stacked sequentially from a bottom to form a sensing unit at one end part and a signal processor at another end part. The sensing unit includes: a reference electrode formed on one surface of the first substrate and having a constant capacitance value; a temperature sensor formed on one surface of the second substrate and sensing a temperature and a heater electrode disposed to be adjacent to the temperature sensor; and a main electrode formed on one surface of the third substrate and having a capacitance value that is varied by the particulate matter.
