Abstract
An acceleration sensor 1 comprises a circuit board 3 on which an acceleration detecting element 2 is carried. A plurality of connecting terminals 4 arranged along the periphery of the circuit board 3 are projected outward after penetrating through a metal base plate 5. The metal base plate 5 is fixed to the connecting terminals 4 spaced apart from the circuit board 3 by a predetermined distance in a state being insulated from the connecting terminals 4. The peripheral edge of the metal base plate 5 is connected to a case 7 covering the entire acceleration sensor 1. Circuit elements constituting a signal processing circuit for processing a detection signal of the acceleration detecting element 2 are arranged on the upper surface and the lower surface of the circuit board 3.
