A method for producing a sensor includes a circuit carrier which includes an assembly island which supports a sensor circuit for emitting a sensor signal dependent on a physical transmitting field, and an interface which is electrically connected to the assembly island and which transmits the sensor signal to a superordinate signal processing device. The method includes: Enveloping one part of the circuit carrier containing the assembly island and the sensor circuit in a first protective compound; connecting a signal transmission element to the interface; enveloping at least one part of the first protective compound and the interface to at least one part of the signal transmission element connected thereto in a second protective compound.
