Abstract
A cantilever semiconductor acceleration sensor element is supported by a pedestal fixed to a base. The base is sealed with a cap, forming an airtight space between the cap and the base that is filled with silicone oil. A central portion of the cap is deformed by an external force to increase the pressure of the silicone oil in the space to a pressure above atmospheric pressure. The generation of air bubbles on the sensor element, even at low temperature, is avoided because of the high pressure of the silicone oil.
