A rotation object is made of a magnetic material and disposed within a predetermined range of an angle of rotation on a plane perpendicular to an axis of rotation. A bias magnet generates a bias magnetic field to the rotation body in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Magnetic resistance elements are disposed in the bias magnetic field on a plane including the axis of rotation at a position deviated from the position of the rotation object in the axial direction of the rotation body and inclined by about 45.degree. relative to a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation.

A magnetic detector which is small in size and is capable of preventing the occurrence of deformation in the waveform representing a change in the resistance. A bias magnet 2 is adhered to the support plate 1. A bias magnetic field is generated by the bias magnet 2 toward a gear 7. A substrate 3 is adhered onto the support plate 1, and magneto resistance elements are formed on the substrate 3 by vacuum evaporation. The magneto resistance elements are disposed in parallel with the magnetized surface of the bias magnet 2. The magneto resistance elements are disposed being tilted by about 45 degrees with respect to a vector that is in parallel with the N-pole surface of the bias magnet 2 in the bias magnetic field and is directed toward the outer peripheral edge. Due to the revolution of the gear 7, a change in the resistance takes place in the magneto resistance elements due to a change in the vector which is parallel with the N-pole surface of the bias magnet 2 in the bias magnetic field generated by the bias magnet 2 towards gear 7 and is directed toward the outer peripheral edge.

A peak hold circuit 11 holds a peak value of an output signal from a rotating angle sensor 6. A bottom hold circuit 12 holds a bottom value of the output signal from the rotating angle sensor 6. A threshold value is set from the peak value by the peak hold circuit 11 and the bottom value by the bottom hold circuit 12 by resistors 24 to 27, analog switches 28 and 29 and a NOT circuit 31. A comparator 10 compares the output signal of the rotating angle sensor 6 with the set value thus set, and outputs a binary signal (digitized signal) in accordance with the comparison result.

A noncontact type rotation sensor, which can detect the rotational movement of a gear with high sensitivity and precision without causing any erroneous output, is disclosed. To a magnetic gear is applied a bias magnetic field by a bias magnet from the direction of the teeth of the gear. A sensor part disposed within the bias magnetic field comprises a substrate and a plurality of magneto-resistive elements mounted on the substrate in parallel to the teeth of the gear and electrically connected in series one after another. The sensor part detects the magnetic vector of the bias magnetic field varying according to the rotation of the gear as the composite value of the variations of the resistance values of the plurality of magneto-resistive elements connected in series one after another. The plurality of magneto-resistive elements are arranged with interval and width that enable the plurality of magneto-resistive elements to absorb the erroneous output caused to the variation waveforms of the respective resistance values during power supply.

An automatic gain control circuit for controlling the gain of an amplifier amplifying an ac signal is provided which includes a resistance circuit, a comparing circuit, a gain control determining circuit, and a gain controlling circuit. The resistance circuit includes a plurality of resistors connected in series through taps. The comparing circuit compares an output signal of the amplifier with reference upper and lower limit values to determine whether the output signal of the amplifier is within a desired amplitude range of the reference upper limit value to the reference lower limit value or not. The gain control determining circuit determines whether the output signal of the amplifier has exceeded the upper and lower limit values sequentially during a complete cycle thereof for determining whether the gain of the amplifier should be changed or not. The gain controlling circuit selectively short-circuits the taps on both sides of each of the resistors of the resistance circuit to change a total resistance of the resistance circuit for controlling the gain of the amplifier when the output signal of the amplifier has exceeded the upper and lower limit values sequentially.
