Abstract
A current sensor comprises a first lead frame, a signal processing IC, first and second magnetoelectric conversion elements, and a second lead frame that partially surrounds the first and second magnetoelectric conversion elements. In a plan view, the first and second magnetoelectric conversion elements may oppose each other with an intermediate portion, through which a current flows in a second direction that intersects with a first direction from the first magnetoelectric conversion element toward the second magnetoelectric conversion element, sandwiched therebetween. First wires may extend in a direction different from the second magnetoelectric conversion element side in the plan view, and be electrically connected to the signal processing IC without traversing the second lead frame. Second wires may extend in a direction different from the first magnetoelectric conversion element side in the plan view, and be electrically connected to the signal processing IC without traversing the second lead frame.
