Summary: | To provide a magnetic sensor which can be downsized.SOLUTION: A magnetic sensor 1 includes a plurality of MR elements 50 disposed in first to fourth areas A1 to A4. Each of the first to fourth areas A1 to A4 includes: a first end edge and a second end edge located at both ends in a first reference direction Rx; and a third end edge and a fourth end edge located at both ends in a second reference direction Ry. Each of the first and second end edges extends along the second reference direction Ry. Each of the third and fourth end edges extends along a third reference direction. Each of the plurality of MR elements 50 has a shape long in a direction different from either one of the first reference direction Rx, the second reference direction Ry, and the third reference direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 15
【課題】小型化が可能な磁気センサを実現する。【解決手段】磁気センサ1は、第1ないし第4の領域A1~A4に配置された複数のMR素子50を備えている。第1ないし第4の領域A1~A4の各々は、第1の基準方向Rxにおける両端に位置する第1の端縁および第2の端縁と、第2の基準方向Ryにおける両端に位置する第3の端縁および第4の端縁とを有している。第1および第2の端縁の各々は、第2の基準方向Ryに沿って延在している。第3および第4の端縁の各々は、第3の基準方向に沿って延在している。複数のMR素子50の各々は、第1の基準方向Rx、第2の基準方向Ryおよび第3の基準方向のいずれとも異なる方向に長い形状を有している。【選択図】図15 |
