INERTIAL SENSOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

An inertial sensor capable of making pressure of a space in which an inertial sensor such as an acceleration sensor is placed to be higher than that during a sealing step and improving reliability is provided. The inertial sensor can be achieved by means of making an inertial sensor including a substrate, a movable portion on the substrate, a cap member which seals the movable portion so as to cover the movable portion, wherein a gas-generating material is applied to the movable portion side of the cap.
