Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To electrically reliably connect a functional part with outside to improve the productivity and the reliability. SOLUTION: An upper board 3 having initial through-holes 24 is bonded to a silicon substrate 2. After forming an angular velocity detector 11 on the substrate 2, a lower board 1 is bonded to the substrate 2. A boring process is applied to the initial through-holes 24 by sand blast, etc., to form through- holes 21. A conductive film for electrically connecting the detector 11 to outside is formed on the inner walls of the through-holes 21. This eliminates the shape variation of the through-holes 21, thereby forming through-holes 21 having approximately the same shape.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, a groove for wiring is formed on the surface of the glass substrate by forming a groove around the through hole at the same time as forming the through hole. By forming the conductive film, the conductive film can be provided on the inner wall of the through hole and the wiring groove. Then, in this state, by subjecting the surface of the glass substrate to polishing treatment or the like, the conductive film on the surface of the glass substrate is removed,
A conductive film that electrically connects the functional unit and the outside can be provided on the inner wall of the through hole and the wiring groove. For this reason, it is possible to form a wiring connected in the through hole on the surface of the glass substrate using the wiring groove. Further, since the wiring shape of the conductive film can be set by the wiring groove, the width of the wiring can be reduced, the angular velocity sensor can be downsized, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the portion of the conductive film located in the wiring groove forms an electrode pad, the conductive film in the wiring groove serving as the electrode pad is subjected to wire bonding or the like. Thus, the functional unit can be electrically connected to the outside. Further, since the connection portion between the electrode pad and the wire bonding can be arranged in the wiring groove, the connection portion can be protected, and the reliability and productivity can be improved.
