Abstract
A magnetic sensor device includes at least one magnetic sensor and a support. A center of gravity of an element layout area of the at least one magnetic sensor is deviated from a center of gravity of a reference plane of the support. The at least one magnetic sensor includes four auxiliary resistor sections constituted by a plurality of magnetoresistive elements. The element layout area includes first to fourth areas for laying out the four auxiliary resistor sections, respectively. Two of the first to fourth areas are arranged so that at least parts of the respective two areas sandwich a reference axis therebetween, and other two of the first to fourth areas are arranged so that at least parts of the respective other two areas sandwich the reference axis therebetween.
