Abstract
The semiconductor pressure sensor embodying the present invention comprises a housing. A sensor board is located in this housing. A pressure-sensing chip, which is formed of a semiconductor and capable of measuring the pressure of a pressure medium, is mounted on the sensor board. Another semiconductor chip, which operates in cooperation with the pressure-sensing chip, is also mounted on the sensor board. A shielding member is located in the housing. This shielding member encloses the pressure-sensing chip in such a manner that the pressure-sensing chip is isolated from the semiconductor chip, and defines a storage chamber which is airtight from the other regions in the housing and adapted to store the pressure-sensing chip. The interior of the housing, except for the storage chamber, is filled with filler, so as to protect the semiconductor chip.
