Abstract
A magnetic sensor device includes a magnet that generates a magnetic field and sets of magnetoresistive elements arranged in a longitudinal direction that is perpendicular to a transport direction. Each of the sets of magnetoresistive elements includes a first and a second resistor. A midpoint of the first and the second resistor is matched with a center axis of the magnet in the transport direction. The first and the second resistor are arranged such that the distance therebetween increases from a distance between first ends of the first and the second resistor in the longitudinal direction to a distance between second ends of the first and the second resistor in the longitudinal direction. At least two sets of the first and the second resistor are arranged so as to be axisymmetric with respect to an imaginary line that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the magnet.
