US 10,651,609 B2 · Method of manufacturing physical quantity sensor device and physical quantity sensor device

Abstract

A first connector pin to a third connector pin have a substantially L-shaped cross-sectional shape formed by a horizontal part embedded in the top of an inner housing part by resin molding and a vertical part continuous with and protruding upwardly orthogonal to the horizontal part. A fourth connector pin has a substantially I-shaped cross-sectional shape having only the vertical part. The horizontal part of the first connector pin is provided so as to surround the first end of the first connector pin, the horizontal part and the first end of the second connector pin, the horizontal part and the first end of the third connector pin, and is integrated and connected to the fourth connector pin. A chip capacitor is attached to the connector pins by a joining member. Thus, the connector pins are connected to each other via the chip capacitors.
