Abstract
An object of the present invention is to reduce leakage magnetic flux in a magnetic sensor provided with a sensor substrate and an external magnetic member. A magnetic sensor includes: a sensor substrate having an element forming surface on which magnetic sensing elements are formed, first and second side surfaces, and a back surface; a first external magnetic member provided between the first and second magnetic sensing elements; and a second external magnetic member having first and second parts and covering the first side surface and second side surface, respectively. The first and second parts of the second external magnetic member protrude from the element forming surface. According to the present invention, since the first and second parts of the second external magnetic member protrude from the element forming surface, leakage of magnetic flux between the first and second external magnetic members is reduced.
