Abstract

In a current sensor for detecting an electric current flowing in a current path, a magnetic field generating element generates a second magnetic field perpendicular to a first magnetic field generated by the electric current of the current path, and a magnetic sensor generates at least one of a first signal containing a sine value according to an angle defined between the second magnetic field and a synthetic magnetic field composed of the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field and a second signal containing a cosine value according to the angle. A signal processing unit includes a calculation circuit that calculates a tangential value according to the angle using the at least one of the first signal and the second signal, and outputs a sensor signal containing the tangential value.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a current sensor including a magnetic sensor having a magnetoresistive element, and an attachment structure of the current sensor. Background technique [0002] For example, JP 2007-155399A describes a current sensor including a bias magnet generating a bias magnetic field and a magnetic sensor having a magnetoresistive element whose resistance value changes according to a magnetic field applied thereto. [0003] With respect to a current path, such as a bus bar, such a current sensor is arranged such that the direction of the bias magnetic field is parallel to the direction of current flowing in the current path to detect current (hereinafter also referred to as detecting current). When the detection current flows in the current path, a current magnetic field is generated in a direction perpendicular to the bias magnetic field. The current magnetic field is proportional to the magnitude of the detected current. In t...
