Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the step-difference of lamination structure in the vicinity of a magnetic field detecting region, by constituting lamination structure interposing a nonmagnetic layer between a first and a second magnetic layers, and practically forming at least one out of the first and the second magnetic layers, only in the magnetic field detecting region. SOLUTION: An NiF layer 2, a first magnetic layer, is formed in a magnetic field detecting region on a board 1 composed of non-magnetic material like glass. A Cu layer 3, a nonmagnetic layer, is formed covering the NiFe layer 2 and the board 1. A Co layer, a second magnetic layer, is formed on the Cu layer 3. A pair of electrode lead layers 5, 6 are so formed on the Co layer 4 that a specific distance is kept between the lead layers. Since the NiFe layer 2 is formed only in the magnetic field detecting region, it is defined. Threreby the electrode lead layers 5, 6 can be formed in the parts distant from the magnetic field detecting region.
