A physical quantity detecting sensor includes a physical quantity detecting sensor element and an IC connected to the physical quantity detecting sensor element. The IC includes: a logic circuit; an analog circuit; a first regulator that supplies a logic power supply voltage generated based on a power supply voltage to the logic circuit; a second regulator that is switched to enable or disable and supplies an analog power supply voltage, which is generated based on the power supply voltage when the second regulator is set to enable, to the analog circuit; and a switch for supplying the logic power supply voltage to the analog circuit when the second regulator is set to disable.
