Abstract
A thin-film type flow sensor having a thin-film part in which a plurality of patterned resistor films are sandwiched between a pair of insulator films. The resistance ratios among the resistor films are minimized from one sensor to another made from the same wafer. The flow sensor has a lower insulator film, the resistor films, and an upper film laminated in succession on a substrate. The resistor films include a patterned fluid thermometer, a temperature detector, and a heater. The heater has a wiring configuration in which resistor elements are connected in a parallel manner. The wiring widths of the heater and the thermometer can thus be made identical, so that the resistance ratios become invariant over the wafer surface, irrespective of a disparity in etching variations.
