Is composed. When pressure is applied to the diaphragm, the resistance value of the pressure detecting element changes due to the piezoresistance effect, and as a result, a potential difference (output voltage) occurs at the midpoint potential of the central and peripheral pressure detecting elements. .
The pressure sensor performs an appropriate amplification and adjustment process on the output voltage to output an electric signal corresponding to the pressure.

電気信号を出力してしまう可能性がある。As described above, the pressure sensor merely amplifies and adjusts the potential difference output from the bridge circuit. For example, when the bridge circuit generates an erroneous potential difference due to contamination, damage, or the like. In this case, there is a possibility that an erroneous electric signal is output as it is.

に欠落が生じるという問題がある。As a pressure sensor having a function of detecting such an abnormality, there is a pressure sensor described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H8-247881. This pressure sensor makes a failure determination based on the sum voltage of two output terminals of the bridge circuit. However, this pressure sensor has a problem that a part of the abnormality detection is missing.

ΔV + ΔVe, and the output of the other output terminal is Vcc /
2-ΔV−ΔVe. At this time, if the sum voltage of both output terminals is taken, the error component ΔVe is canceled out and no abnormality can be detected. Therefore, when an error component (+ ΔVe and −ΔVe) having the same magnitude and a different sign occurs at each output terminal, the result is that the abnormality cannot be detected.

The bridge circuit 1 is formed in a diaphragm portion (thin portion) of a silicon substrate (not shown). When pressure is applied to the diaphragm part, a stress displacement occurs, and each resistance value of the resistances RA to RD changes in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 1 due to the piezoresistance effect. Note that the resistors RA to RD should be formed in the same process so as to have the same shape and the same resistance, respectively, so as not to be affected by patterning, temperature, and the like.

A constant voltage Vcc is applied between a terminal A of the other end and a terminal D of the other end (ground side), and a middle point B of the resistors RA and RB and a resistor R
The middle point C of C and RD is configured as an output terminal. When no pressure is applied to the diaphragm, the output (midpoint potential) is VB = VC = V at the output terminals B and C, respectively.

The potential difference between the two output terminals B and C is amplified by the amplifier circuit 2 and adjusted by the adjustment circuit 3, and then the sensor output Vout is output. The pressure applied to the diaphragm of the silicon substrate can be measured based on the sensor output Vout.
