Abstract
A sensor device includes a conductive layer. The conductive layer is interposed between a first principal surface of an IC chip and a sensor element and faces the sensor element via a resin-based adhesive layer. The sensor element includes: a moving part including a moving electrode; a fixed part including a fixed electrode forming capacitance between the moving electrode and itself; a first terminal connected to the moving electrode; and a second terminal connected to the fixed electrode. The IC chip includes: a signal processor that processes a detection signal from the second terminal; a first voltage generator that generates a first voltage as an operating voltage for the processor; and a second voltage generator that generates a second voltage corresponding to the sensor element's reference potential applied to the first terminal. The conductive layer is electrically connected to the first terminal.
