PRESSURE SENSOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology for reducing possibility that a bonding wire comes in contact with a pedestal presser, in a pressure sensor.SOLUTION: The pressure sensor comprises: a housing extending in an axial direction; a pressure detection element; a pedestal; an intermediate member to which a circuit part is provided; a pedestal presser which is arranged so as to surround a tip side periphery of the intermediate member, and is fixed to the housing, and which regulates movement of the pedestal in the axial direction by abutting against a rear end surface of the pedestal located at a side opposite to a surface on which the element is placed, among surfaces of the pedestal; and an electrical wiring path which is housed in the housing and is for electrically connecting the pressure detection element and the circuit part. The electrical wiring path includes a bonding wire. And a space part for taking in the bonding wire is formed in the pedestal presser.
