Abstract
A pressure sensor includes: a first substrate having first and second diaphragms on one surface provided by first and second recesses on another surface; first and second detecting elements on the first and second diaphragms; a second substrate providing a first reference pressure chamber with the one surface of the first substrate; a third substrate providing a second reference pressure chamber sealing the second recess; and a calculator calculating an offset value by a difference between a reference signal and an inspection signal and detecting a pressure of a measurement medium by a difference between a detection signal and the offset value. The first detecting element outputs the detection signal or the inspection signal according to a pressure difference between a first reference pressure or a reference medium pressure and a measurement medium pressure in the first recess. The second detecting element outputs the reference signal according to a difference between the first reference pressure and and a second reference pressure.
