Current sensor
Abstract:
A current sensor includes at least two conductors and at least two magnetoelectric conversion units each having at least two magnetism detection elements for detecting magnetic flux density of magnetic flux input to detection surfaces facing the same direction, and outputting a signal according to a difference in magnetic flux density between orthogonal components orthogonal to the detection surface of magnetic flux input to the detection surface of the magnetism detection elements. Each conductor includes an extending portion extending along a second-direction orthogonal to a first-direction being an adjacent direction of two adjacent conductors, and a recessed portion including orthogonal portions extending along a third-direction orthogonal to the first- and second-directions and recessed in the third-direction from the extending portion. Each magnetoelectric conversion unit is disposed with the detection surface facing the orthogonal portion of the recessed portion.
