Abstract

A physical quantity sensor includes a first element section in which first capacitances varying in accordance with a physical quantity have first saturation capacitance values at which the first capacitances are saturated by a first physical quantity, a second element section in which a second capacitances varying in accordance with the physical quantity have second saturation capacitance values at which the second capacitances are saturated by a second physical quantity smaller in absolute value than the first physical quantity, a multiplexer for outputting the first signals from the first element section and the second signals from the second element section, and a determination circuit that determines whether or not the level of the second signal input via the multiplexer reaches a threshold value which is a level of the second signal when the second physical quantity acts.
