Title:
FLOW RATE SENSOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/057176
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present flow rate sensor (1) is provided with a heating resistor (40) and a plurality of temperature detectors (30-33), and detects the flow rate of a fluid flowing over the temperature detectors (30-33) on the basis of temperature detection results of each of the temperature detectors (30-33), in a state in which the heating resistor (40) has been heated. This flow rate sensor (1) has: a frame-shaped semiconductor substrate provided with an opening; a diaphragm section (20) provided on the semiconductor substrate; and the heating resistor (40) and the temperature detectors (30-33) provided to the diaphragm section (20). The diaphragm section (20) is provided with a thin film structure (20t) for closing the opening, and in a plan view, the thin film structure (20t) has the plurality of temperature detectors (30-33) disposed around the heating resistor (40).
