Abstract
Provided is a differential transformer magnetic permeability sensor that accurately suppress a variation of output level of each sensor even if a position shift occurs in forming a detection coil, a reference coil, and a drive coil as planar coils. The differential transformer magnetic permeability sensor includes a first coil layer including a first drive coil constituted of a first wire of a flat winding and a detection coil constituted of a second wire of a flat winding, a second coil layer including a second drive coil constituted of a third wire of a flat winding and a reference coil constituted of a fourth wire of a flat winding. The first drive coil and the second drive coil are connected so that drive current have the same direction, while the detection coil and the reference coil are connected so that induced current have opposite directions.
