ABSTRACT:
A piezoelectric sensor has a piezoelectric element having a specific axis of sensitivity and a package for the piezoelectric element. The package has a rectangular parrallelopiped configuration with opposite longitudinal end surfaces having a height-to-width ratio of about 1:1. External lead electrodes are formed to cover at least the longitudinal end surfaces. A method and apparatus for detecting if the sensor is disposed in the proper posture is also disclosed.
