Abstract:
A electronic apparatus includes a switching circuit including first and second circuits and a controller that controls the switching circuit. The first and second circuits process signals of first and second sensor elements, respectively. The controller switches between the first and second circuits of the switching circuit. The electronic apparatus can have a small size.
Abstract:
A magnetic sensor has a first tube-shaped bias magnet and a first magnetic sensor element. The first tube-shaped bias magnet has a bottom face, a top face facing the bottom face, and an outer side surface and an inner side surface both located between the bottom face and the top face, and includes an N pole formed by magnetizing one of the bottom face and the top face and an S pole formed by magnetizing a remaining one of the bottom face and the top face. The first magnetic sensor element is located in an inner space surrounded by a plane including the bottom face, a plane including the top face, and the inner side surface. The magnetic sensor can detect intensity of an external magnetic field with high accuracy.
