Abstract
A capacitive type humidity sensor includes: a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of humidity devices having a capacitance variable in accordance with a humidity; a standard capacitance device having a standard capacitance, a capacitance change of which in accordance with the humidity is smaller than that of the capacitance of each humidity device; and a CV converter circuit for converting a capacitance difference between the capacitance of each humidity device and the standard capacitance of the standard capacitance device to a signal voltage. The humidity devices, the standard capacitance device and the CV converter circuit are disposed on one side of the substrate.
