摘要:
In the manufacturing technology of an integrated MEMS in which a semiconductor integrated circuit (CMOS or the like) and a micro machine are monolithically integrated on a semiconductor substrate, a technology capable of manufacturing the integrated MEMS without using a special process different from the normal manufacturing technology of a semiconductor integrated circuit is provided. A MEMS structure is formed together with an integrated circuit by using the CMOS integrated circuit process. For example, when forming an acceleration sensor, a structure composed of a movable mass, an elastic beam and a fixed beam is formed by using the CMOS interconnect technology. Thereafter, an interlayer dielectric and the like are etched by using the CMOS process to form a cavity. Then, fine holes used in the etching are sealed with a dielectric.

In a personal identification device using blood vessel patterns, means capable of downsizing the device is especially provided. The personal identification device comprises an infrared ray source and a light receiving element row containing a plurality of light receiving elements. In personal identification, a finger is passed over the light receiving element row. An image containing a two-dimensional blood vessel pattern of the finger is created from an output of the light receiving element row and displacement information of the passing finger. The blood vessel pattern thus obtained is checked for a match with a previously registered pattern to perform the personal identification. The device can be downsized and can be easily mounted in a place having a limited mounting space, such as in cars and cell phones.

To provide a sensor mounting structure which enables mounting an automotive sensor directly to the wall section of a part to be detected, without using screws, and also mounting a pressure detector directly to a pressure air passage without using a pressure inlet pipe. The non-circular sensor mounting hole is provided for inserting a part of the sensor housing into the wall section of the part to be detected. In the sensor housing the first locking portion (pawl) and the second locking portion (flange) are integrally formed by molding. The housing 1 is allowed to be inserted into the mounting hole under the condition that the pawl is directed to a specific orientation, and, after insertion, is turned through a specific angle. Therefore the pawl is engaged on the inside surface of the wall section. The flange is engaged on the outside surface of the wall section. The pawl and the flange are designed to hold the wall section of the part to be detected, thereby mounting the sensor. The projection of the hook is engaged with the recess provided in the sensor housing 1, thus locking the sensor from turning.

A flow rate signal analog-digital conversion circuit 30, an adjustment processing circuit 40 and a chip temperature sensor circuit 60 are disposed a single semiconductor chip 100 to form an integrated circuit, and a chip temperature signal in a form of digital signal outputted from the chip temperature sensor circuit 60 is inputted into the adjustment processing circuit 40 in which correction reducing temperature dependent error in a series of signal processing circuits is performed. Thereby, a board temperature dependent error in a gas flow rate measuring device can be reduced in which adjustment is performed for digital signals.

In a rotation angle measurement apparatus using a bridge configuration of a magneto-resistance element, a correct angle is not output when a fault occurs. For this reason, there is a problem in which an upper-layer system using the same is broken down. However, in order to solve this problem, there is provided a rotation angle measurement apparatus including a SIN bridge and a COS bridge each of which includes a magneto-resistance element and a detection unit, wherein the detection unit outputs an angle signal based on a signal output from a normal half bridge when a fault occurs in any one of respective half bridges of the COS bridge or the SIN bridge.
