Abstract
A semiconductor dynamic quantity sensor includes a sensor part and a cap connected to the sensor part. Dynamic quantity is detected based on a capacitance of a capacitor defined between a movable electrode and a fixed electrode of the sensor part. A float portion of the sensor part is separated from a support board of the sensor part to define a predetermined interval. At least one of the cap and the support board has a displacing portion displacing the float portion in a direction perpendicular to the support board so as to change the predetermined interval. The movable electrode has a displacement in accordance with the displaced float portion.
