Abstract
A thermal flow sensor for vehicles includes a bridge circuit unit having a heating resistor whose resistance value changes according to temperature, a resistance thermometer, detecting a temperature of a fluid, whose resistance value changes according to temperature, and an integrated circuit unit controlling the bridge circuit unit and outputting a signal of detected fluid flow rate. A drive power source for the bridge circuit unit is supplied from a battery, and a drive power source for the integrated circuit unit is supplied from a constant voltage source stabilized by a fuel injection control device.
