Abstract
An electronic device according to the invention includes: a substrate; an MEMS structure formed above the substrate; and a covering structure defining a cavity in which the MEMS structure is arranged, wherein the covering structure has a first covering layer covering from above the cavity and having a through-hole in communication with the cavity and a second covering layer formed above the first covering layer and closing the through-hole, the first covering layer has a first region located above at least the MEMS structure and a second region located around the first region, the first covering layer is thinner in the first region than in the second region, and a distance between the substrate and the first covering layer in the first region is longer than a distance between the substrate and the first covering layer in the second region.
