Abstract
A sensor includes a metallic housing having a hollow portion, a metallic terminal pin, a part of which is inserted into the hollow portion of the housing, a sensing element connected to the terminal pin, and a resin casing. The terminal pin and the resin casing provide a connector for connecting an outer circuit outside the sensor. A part of the resin casing is disposed in the hollow portion. The terminal pin and the housing are molded with the resin casing by insert molding so that the resin casing, the terminal pin, and the housing are integrated together.
