Abstract: A position detection device includes a first position detector, a second position detector, and a signal generator. The first position detector includes a first magnetic field generation unit, a second magnetic field generation unit, and a first magnetic sensor. The second position detector includes a third magnetic field generation unit, a fourth magnetic field generation unit, and a second magnetic sensor. The positions of the second and fourth magnetic field generation units vary in response to variations in a detection-target position. The signal generator generates a position detection signal, which is the sum of a first detection signal generated by the first magnetic sensor and a second detection signal generated by the second magnetic sensor. Each of the first and second position detectors includes a bias magnetic field generation unit.

Abstract: A pair of bias magnets applies a bias magnetic field to the magneto-resistive effect element, the bias magnetic field having a component in a direction such that the component cancels the external magnetic field that is applied to the magneto-resistive effect element and a component that is perpendicular to the external magnetic field. The bias magnet has an elongate cross section in a plane that is parallel both to the external magnetic field and to the bias magnetic field. In a projection plane that is parallel to the cross section and onto which the bias magnets and the magneto-resistive effect element are projected, the bias magnet includes an element facing side that is opposite to the magneto-resistive effect element and that extends in a longitudinal direction. The bias magnet is magnetized in a direction that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The element facing side is longer than other sides.
