Abstract
Provided is a physical quantity sensor capable of improving physical quantity detection precision thereof. The physical quantity sensor includes a bridge resistance type physical quantity detection element for generating a voltage based on a bias current and a physical quantity, a current supply circuit for supplying the bias current to the physical quantity detection element, and a leakage current control circuit for causing leakage currents flowing when switches of the current supply circuit are in an off state to flow into a ground terminal.
