Provided is a sensor device provided with improved reproducibility of a switching characteristic and reduced average consumption current. A sensor device include: a sensor; a drive circuit configured to drive the sensor; a processing circuit configured to output a binary result signal obtained by binarizing an electrical signal output from the sensor; a determination circuit configured to capture the binary result signal a plurality of times and perform a predetermined logical determination processing; a latch circuit configured to capture an output signal of the determination circuit; an output terminal; and a control circuit configured to output a control signal for intermittently controlling at least one of the drive circuit and the processing circuit such that an operation period and a pause period are repeated with a predetermined cycle. The operation period is interrupted and caused to transition to the pause period in a predetermined case.
