Moreover, it is not sufficient in terms of protection from damage, and furthermore, the magnetoresistive detection piece 2 deteriorates in quality during long-term use, resulting in deterioration of the magnetoresistive effect.

In such a configuration, the same effect as described above can be obtained, and the bonding wire 14 (see FIG. 3) that electrically connects the magnetoresistive detection piece 2 and the lead 12 and the bonding work therefor are unnecessary. As a result, reliability in connectivity is improved, and furthermore, effects such as lower production costs can be obtained.

In the above embodiments, the substrate 10 and the package 15 are made of glass and ceramic, which are non-magnetic and have electrical insulation properties, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Of course, the same effect as described above can be obtained even if a metal material made of a non-magnetic material is used or used in combination. However, in this case, it is necessary to provide electrical insulation to the metal materials of the magnetoresistive detection piece 2 and the lead 12. Furthermore, in combination with the above-mentioned protective film 3, it goes without saying that the bond between the substrate and the package does not have to be highly airtight.

As explained above, according to the magnetoresistive sensing element of the present invention, the magnetoresistive sensing piece is isolated from the outside air and housed in the casing, so it is not corroded by the outside atmosphere, and therefore can be used for a long period of time. Moisture resistance can be maintained over the course of use. In addition, since the substrate on which the magnetoresistive detection piece is formed is used as a part of the housing, by reducing the thickness of the housing, the magnetoresistive detection piece can be attached to the magnetic pole of the detection magnetic field by increasing the wall thickness. Since it can be brought close to the thickness of the substrate, extremely excellent effects such as being able to accurately and highly sensitively detect the arrangement state of magnetic poles arranged at minute intervals can be obtained.
