Abstract

A circuit device includes a detection circuit to which first and second detection signals forming differential signals are input from a physical quantity transducer and a diagnosis circuit. The detection circuit includes first and second charge/voltage conversion circuits. The diagnosis circuit includes a first capacitor which is provided between a first node and a first input node to which the first detection signal is input and a second capacitor which is provided between the first node and a second input node to which the second detection signal is input and has a different capacitor value from the first capacitor. In a diagnosis mode, a diagnosis signal is input to the first node.
