A pressure detecting device that detects the combustion pressure in an internal combustion engine includes: a piezoelectric element that outputs a charge signal corresponding to the pressure in a combustion chamber; and a mounting board on which are mounted an integrating circuit that integrates the charge signal outputted by the piezoelectric element and an amplifier circuit that amplifies a voltage signal obtained by integration. On the mounting board are provided: a power receiving terminal that receives a power-supply voltage from a controller; an output terminal that outputs an output signal after amplification to the controller; and a grounding terminal for making the ground of the controller and the mounting board common. Furthermore, in the mounting board, the grounding terminal and grounding ends of the integrating circuit and the amplifier circuit are connected by way of grounding ferrite beads.

An in-cylinder pressure detecting apparatus for detecting a pressure in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine is provided. The in-cylinder pressure detecting apparatus comprises a pressure detecting element mounted on a tip-portion of a fuel injection device which injects fuel into the combustion chamber, and an amplifying circuit unit having an amplifying circuit which amplifies a signal output from the pressure detecting element and outputs a pressure detection signal. An in-cylinder pressure detecting unit integrated fuel injection device is configured by integrating an in-cylinder pressure detecting unit with the fuel injection device. The in-cylinder pressure detecting unit includes the pressure detecting element, the amplifying circuit unit, and a connecting member connecting the pressure detecting element with the amplifying circuit unit. The in-cylinder pressure detecting unit integrated fuel injection device is mounted on the internal combustion engine.
