Abstract
An acceleration switch has a frame fixed to a first substrate, a beam positioned inside the frame and supported by the frame, and a mass body supported by the beam and having a hole portion at substantially a center thereof. A central body is positioned inside the hole portion and fixed to the first substrate. The hole portion or the central body are suitably configured, or the position of the hole portion or the position of the center body is suitably selected, so that the acceleration switch is capable of detecting a predetermined acceleration irrespective of the influence of gravity acceleration.
