A method of sealing and leading out an electrode for an MEMS device such as an angular velocity sensor, an acceleration sensor, or a combined sensor is provided. A fixed portion is formed within a device forming region surrounded with a base support, a beam is connected to the fixed portion, and a movable portion is connected to the beam. Further, a detection portion for detecting the displacement of the movable portion is disposed within the device forming region. An interconnection is connected to the movable portion and the detection portion, and the interconnection extends from the hermetically sealed device forming region to the external region at the outside. The interconnection penetrates the base support and is connected with the terminal. A hole is formed between the interconnection and the base support, and an insulating film is formed in the hole. The interconnection and the base support are insulated by an insulating film buried in the hole. |
