Abstract

A magnetic sensor that is easy to ensure the height of the yoke and that is also easy to guide magnetic flux in the direction in which the magnetic field sensing film detects a magnetic field is provided. The magnetic sensor includes first magnetic field detection elementthat has first magnetic field sensing filmthat detects a magnetic field in first direction X, and first yokethat includes first portionthat is located on a side of first magnetic field sensing filmwith respect to first direction X, and second portionthat is in contact with first portionin direction Z that is orthogonal to first direction X. The average dimension of second portionin first direction X is larger than the average dimension of first portionin first direction X.
