Abstract
A magnetic balance type current sensor of the present invention includes a magnetic field detection bridge circuit including four magnetoresistance effect elements whose resistance values change owing to application of an induction magnetic field from a current to be measured. Each of the four magnetoresistance effect elements includes a ferromagnetic fixed layer formed by causing a first ferromagnetic film and a second ferromagnetic film to be antiferromagnetically coupled to each other via an antiparallel coupling film, a non-magnetic intermediate layer, and a soft magnetic free layer. The first and second ferromagnetic films are approximately equal in Curie temperature to each other, a difference in magnetization amount therebetween is substantially zero, and the magnetization directions of the ferromagnetic fixed layers of three magnetoresistance effect elements are different by 180 degrees from the magnetization direction of the ferromagnetic fixed layer of the remaining one magnetoresistance effect element.
