Abstract
A sensor device includes a base plate, a seismic mass having an upper side and a lower side that is situated such that given acceleration of the base plate the seismic mass is capable of being displaced in a direction oriented non-parallel to the upper side and/or to the lower side, at least one raised stop on the seismic mass, and a detection and evaluation device that is adapted to acquire a displacement movement of the seismic mass relative to the base plate and, taking into account the displacement movement, to determine an item of information relating to an acceleration of the sensor device and/or to a force acting on the sensor device, the seismic mass having at least one resilient area that includes the at least one stop and at least one displaceable remaining area, and the resilient area being connected to the remaining area via at least one spring. A method is for manufacturing a sensor device.
