First Claim
1. A sensor, comprising:
- a supporter;
a beam including a movable portion, the movable portion including a first region having an end fixed to the supporter and a second region extending from the first region, the end of the first region extending in a first direction, the second region of the movable portion having an end opposite the end of the first region and movable in a second direction crossing the first direction; and
a sensing element fixed to the first region, the second region not overlapping the sensing element in the second direction, the sensing element including a first magnetic layer, a direction of a first magnetization of the first magnetic layer being along the first direction.

Abstract
According to one embodiment, a strain and pressure sensing device includes a semiconductor circuit unit and a sensing unit. The semiconductor circuit unit includes a semiconductor substrate and a transistor. The transistor is provided on a semiconductor substrate. The sensing unit is provided on the semiconductor circuit unit, and has space and non-space portions. The non-space portion is juxtaposed with the space portion. The sensing unit further includes a movable beam, a strain sensing element unit, and first and second buried interconnects. The movable beam has fixed and movable portions, and includes first and second interconnect layers. The fixed portion is fixed to the non-space portion. The movable portion is separated from the transistor and extends from the fixed portion into the space portion. The strain sensing element unit is fixed to the movable portion. The first and second buried interconnects are provided in the non-space portion.
