Abstract
A sensor IC generates a voltage according to magnetic flux density of an applied magnetic field. The sensor IC includes a plurality of Hall sensors having an identical shape formed adjacent to each other in a semiconductor chip, each of the Hall sensors generating a sensor output voltage which includes a Hall output voltage component in proportion to the magnetic flux density. The sensor IC further includes a plurality of differential amplifiers having an identical circuit formed adjacent to each other in the semiconductor chip, each of the differential amplifiers multiplying the sensor output voltage produced from a corresponding one of the Hall sensors by a given gain. In the sensor IC, by a summing circuit, output signals produced from the plurality of differential amplifiers are summed.
