The present invention provides a micro tactility-simulating sensing device, including: a chip including a first top surface and a first inductor, wherein the first top surface has wiring through holes configured to allow an external circuit to connect to the first inductor, and the first top surface is a flat surface except the wiring through holes; a magnetic rigid body coupled with the first inductor to allow the first inductor to sense a magnetic flux passing therethrough, and configured to receive a tactile load; and a polymer configured between the chip and the magnetic rigid body to have a characteristic distance therebetween, wherein the characteristic distance and the magnetic flux have a functional relationship. The micro tactility-simulating sensing device of the present invention can effectively increase the magnitude of the measured signal and provide two different ways to read the signal.
